New 19 mm shoes

Love this Spring Drive SBGA 293 but I don’t know why Seiko put 19 mm lugs on a 40 mm case? I can easily squeeze in a soft 20mm calf strap in there but gator straps need to be appropriately sized IMHO.

Yep… three Seikos in my collection, each with odd lug sizes.

Your strap looks great.

That is a great GS dear Vallura! I however do share your sentiment about the 19mm lug width. I personally do not like smaller then 20mm and I must say this was part of why I sold that reference which I did own a couple years ago…

I was tempted by the manual spring drive GS just recently released but could not yet convince myself about the smaller strap…. I love the look of this combo you did on it though!
