Any back yard leather person who frequents the weekend markets are a good source, they are a brilliant idea

they are actually just a cover that replaces your normal band/strap & as the others said markets etc would be a good place to start:D

Try Army Disposals. Bought mine - now going back man years - from a disposals store. Brilliant idea although the missus hated it...

As a mechanic I dont like them....
they trap dieso brake fliud and crap that gives you nasty skin rashes....
take yoour watch off instead...or cover it with the neck of a sock...
Loved them as a crane opeerator/dogger tho

Get a watch with a good saphire crystal lens and it won't damage easily. Like Blknight said, better taking it off. If it's on your rist you are also likely to catch it on something and that can be dangerous too.

I have not worn a watch since March 2005. We were on St Helena Island yesterday and I said to my Dad 'It must be 2 o'clock'. He checked his watch and I was bang on.
That's what chemo does to one's body clock after several treatments. Not recommended so keep your watches!
