    already been posted. For the money you can use either bungee or a piece of elastic from a farbric store and do the same thing for A LOT less money.

    You might be right. However as mentionned earlier replacing the bottom timer bracelet with double bunggies does not always prevent rotation or possible loss, it only minimise it. Also not all divers will want cut off their computer bracelet straps (ie Suunto computer) and replace them with bunggies.

    Buy a piece of three inch wide elastic and be done with it then. That is exactly what this cuff thing is that they charge $17 for..I think that was the price. With the elastic you can simply stitch the band from your BT to it, using the holes already there and the buckle, and not damage it for later sale.

    Is it me, or are the only people who actually like this thing French Canadians?

    Where is it manufactured, anyway? Hmmmm....

    Good idea, why not trying it and letting us know if it works. Thanks

    It could be possible that they are only divers that have tried the product yet.

    I think that was why I posted it...because I have tried it and yes it works.

    You can also get a smaller size elastic and run it over the watch pins (compass or what ever) and under the watch to form one piece of elastic. Some watch bands are this way. If one pin pops out you don't loose the watch.
