Review on Seiko Jubilee Style 22mm Stainless Steel: Sleek and Sturdy Watch Strap for a Timeless Look by David Dugas

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Complements my SRPD

I bought this along with a super anniversary strapcode for my SRPD61. Strapcode (V-shaped clasp) was very heavy, very strong. I would have kept it but the end connection holes didn't line up with the lug holes on the SRPD. This anniversary bracelet from SEIKO looks similar, is slightly more flexible and much lighter. This bracelet is great, but not perfect right away. The end links need some adjustment (read: flex) to match the flex of the SRPD body. Another more important issue when installing on the SRPD is the need to use a 2.5 x 22mm spring bar. I went to the two nearest watch shops but neither had anything close by. The Revain (and bracelet) have the correct bars, look for the Seiko Diver Fat Bar 2.5mm x 22mm. With these adjustments, this bracelet is incredibly comfortable and lightweight. Not a titanium light, but a step in the right direction. I'm not a big fan of the zipper mechanism (I prefer the side buttons), but it does the job where I need it.
