  • Zakk-type watchbands - where to?

    Years ago I had a black watch band like this:



    And have been unable to find them for a reasonable price ($40 is NOT reasonable, leather or not).

    Anyone know where I can find similar items (other than the local fetish shop? [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img])

    Anyone find a stockpile of wide leather guitar straps that can be turned into this type of watchband? I've got one old black leather Rhoads-style strap, but was going to give it the Rhoads treatment (with whatever I had left from making the Halford Warrior [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img])
    I want to depart this world the same way I arrived; screaming and covered in someone else's blood

      a word of caution: many state laws have been changed regarding those style of watchbands. i know that with the purchase of a watch band like that, many states have madated the additional purchase of either an el camino with an "ass, grass, or gas; nobody rides for free" bumper sticker, a chevy econoline panel van complete with "hot viking chick fucking a tiger on a mountain" graphic on the side, or a gold 73 gran torino with at least one quarter panel consisting of bondo and old primer.

      just be careful not to bite off more than you can chew... you're lookin for a watch, not a lifestyle. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

                  I had that exact watch band ..in the 5/6th grade..wow I haven't seen one of those since!!!

                  I still have my old Motorcycle chain belt my dad gave me for my 15th B-day..it fits around my leg now..

                  OH..I also have a original 1978 VH Belt Buckle..the first album logo..I still have it!!!! [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

                  OH, NEWC..You know what I got and it's in PERFECT condition...a MINT 1972 digital watch...the push button red faced kind..it cost $80 at the time from Sears..I still got it in the original box...would that be worth anything...I'd assume it would..I replaced the battery in in a couple years ago and it still works great..the battery died again since..that would be perfect with a band like that...same era.

                      $40 for a strap is not reasonable?

                      Geez, I have shelled out $200 for a good strap before.

                      You think guitar collecting is expensive and addictive? Don't even start on watches......
