Guys thanks again for support! That shit means a ton to me.

Honestly there is no single reason why I am closing. I would be lying if I did not say the name change took the some wind out of my sails. But there are a ton of small things along the way that have created some doubts.

Remember I came into this not knowing my head from my ass (I still get confused). The way I have been running the business had pretty much wore me out. I need to step back and refocus to see what I can do to make things mo-better.

I am still doing watch repairs and handies. With my newish job I gone 10 hours a day. So things definitely will be slower.

TN is still alive in my heart!

I’m really glad you’re taking the time then. I think you’ve made a name for yourself with quality straps and repair for sure.

Glad to hear that repairs are still available. Take some time and recharge the batteries. If you decide to jump back in you've got many loyal customers. Thanks for the quality products and service over the past years. Best to you, T.

Glad to hear you’re taking some time. Sucks to have to close down for a bit though. Hopefully you can come back better than before. Wish you the best!

Buying from you was a great experience so I hope you'll find the time and energy to continue contributing to the watch space in some capacity. Thanks again for the quality products and service.

Been a fan of Terry and his products for a while now, looking forward to boosting my strap collection soon!

Also went back and listened to the TBWS podcast with him, and discovered he is 100% "my kind of people"!

Go with the Island Watch terminology for the Strapcode bracelets: ToxicNeatos.

I’ve got a name for your next strap. The UTE (Uncut Toxic Extreme) single pass strap. You also need to order a batch of jungle green straps for a Jingle Jungle Jollydays sale.

Uncut Toxic Extreme sounds like a sex toy......unless that's the new direction for the business....

^^^ I like that - keeps the brand name intact, but the SEO probably isn’t the same without NATO in it. Although I wonder if the NATO word can be put in the coding but not show up on the website?

Just don't use "Strap On." Ron Sabo's probably got that copyrighted.
