My TQ18 FKM Rubber strap set arrived a moment ago! Thank you guys for the quick AF shipping! My "Batman" Q Timex GMT arrived yesterday! As soon as I pull the straps from the plastic envelope, I could FEEL the FKM quality! In comparison to my other straps, this rubber is very soft and supple. It does not take long to conform to your wrist at all! I love the print and the way that it has just enough traction to let you know that you can feel what you see. Up until this afternoon, I did not know the big deal about FKM Rubber. A little stiff for the first few moments as it contours to the wrist, like a perfect set of broken in, Red Wing 875 Heritage boots. In less than 10 minutes, these FKM straps took my already best fitting watch in the collection, and made it fit, EVEN BETTER! My Q Timex GMT hugs my wrist, like somebody's loving grandma. The keeper system is solid AF. First keeper is a fixed position with cool rubber bumpers to lock it in place. The floating keeper, it is such a nice tight fitment between the keeper, the strap, and the tip, there is zero sliding or play anywhere! It is almost like it's velcro. Aside from that, on my 7⅛" wrist, due to the gradual size increase as it gets towards the QR spring bars, the increase in strap width, locks it into place. The QR Springbars are tightly fit into the rubber straps. I love it! It feels top to your quality!
These TQ18 keepers are the best ones I have in my Rubber strap collection!
I'm looking forward to buying a few more TQ18 strap sets for my new Wrist Candy, as well as fit my Tudor Reference 79330R. Your khaki fkm straps look DELICIOUS.
Big THANKS!
