I bought a new strap from seiko that looks like this.. What is that piece of leather behind for? Is this type of leather straps good on pilot watches?

Hi again Bro, the piece of leather behind is called a 'watch bund', usually issued with military watches and probably to protect the leather strap from deteriorating and to provide extra holding strength. And yes, it looks great with pilot watches. You can also buy them from JW at about $8 a pop!Originally posted by leslie View Post

Haha, bro feilong, I'm sure your size is proportionate lah. I got small wrist but big body, no thanks to all the over-eating and lack of working out. Nevertheless, the watch bund can also be used to make smaller watches appear bigger. A 34-38mm piece will look larger.Originally posted by feilong108 View PostSweet 16:
