Jeg var så heldig å få denne flotte remmen med nøkkelring fra Wotancraft av @BRIO1368 i dag. Synes den passet perfekt til 389.
Takk også for en hyggelig mini GTG!
Post gjerne bilder av deres Bund strap.

Historien bak «Bundstrap».

«The German air force was the first to fit its pilots’ watches on thick leather pads. The cockpits of fighter and bomber aircraft can be alternately very cold and very hot places making a metal watch case riding against a bare wrist uncomfortable. In addition, in the case of a cockpit fire, a leather cuff strap kept the case away from the skin, where the extreme heat could melt flesh. Their initial use for this purpose by the pilots of the Bundesrepublik gave these straps their nickname – “Bund” – which has stuck ever since.»
