The new wide version of the Forstner Komfit arrived today. I had tried the narrower version when it first came out and struggled with the lollipop effect, even with the knowledge of its greater historical correctness. I really like the new width option -- it looks really natural on the 19mm Ed White lugs.

 

I agree with you on both counts - I like it!

What length did you get?

 

That looks very nice. I have to say, while I opted for and like the very late-60s models, those straight lugs look exceptional on your watch. The watch overall looks to be in great condition.

 

I went with the original length, the longer version. You can see in the last picture where the clasp ends up when I have it on fairly snugly. My wrist is just under 7".

 

looks good !

I bought mine 5+ years ago. It's one of the most comfortable straps.

 

One more from this morning’s walk.

 

looks awesome man

 

Do you happen to have photos of the narrow version when tried?

I’ve been flirting with approaching mine with the spring bar tool of death...
