Timex Carriage with cotton strap
After my metal watch band broke on my 12 year old Timex Carriage, I needed a replacement. I decided against metal due to the coldness in the winter. And against nylon due to it’s plastic nature and the fact that it just isn’t environmentally friendly at all. I finally found a band though, made of cotton! Unfortunately, it is in limited supply because the company is no longer making them. No matter, I got one and it is SUPER comfy and I think it looks great to boot!
When I ordered the strap from Amazon, it came in after just a few days. Unfortunately they sent me a 20mm band instead of the 18mm I needed. I emailed the company, Clockwork Synergy, directly and they resolved the issue by sending me the proper strap as well as a return envelope to send the wrong one back. They were very friendly as well, so much so that I plan on buying another strap from them soon. This time I think I might go with nylon anyway, because I really like the “Heavy Duty Nato” (sometimes known as “Zulu”) strap that they sell.
