This is the 3000 model though.
Nah, I'm actually pretty careful with it, it's very rarely caused any scratches.
Hell, I do vehicle work, and don't ever want to scratch anyone's paint. The quick snap makes that a very easy solution, just unsnap it and put it away for a bit.
It looks awesome man. In highschool I did something like this that just looked okay... Like a national watch. I didn't have any money but my dad worked with leather. So I made myself a strap. I found my watch in a pile of broken things at a swap meet. Next thing you know I got a nice looking watch. Yours is way better than anything I could have tried to pretend to make.
