Thanks... you mean small as in too narrow? That strap is the same width as the AF 0210's (I know as I have one 馃榾 )and they fit fine on the bigger lugged WWW's (the Hammie is 17.5mm the WWW's 18mm. Don't forget in the forces 'size doesn't matter' 馃槈.. its not a crime to have a watch strap that is a tad too narrow.. I use a 12.5mm wide Bonklip with 16mm end pieces on my 18mm Omega '53...works just fine for me.

Yes, well aware of the strap widths, just me 馃檮

You said "I could not live with that original strap on the Hammie, way to small."...I now have absolutely no idea what you meant.

I do not like a strap that does not fill between the lugs.

Aha now I see.... that's how they were originally used so that's good enough for me, like I said when I served my time looking cooooool was only a small part of the job 馃槈

But I know what you mean I almost want to kill when I see this new trend of throwing these fake French Para straps on every watch and believing that it looks Pukka Ally! ::facepalm1::
