Odd watch request
Discussion
Hello,
I'm looking to buy a chronograph style watch upto around £400 max. However what I'd really like is something that looks like a chronograph but has a material strap. Really bizarre this, I've had leather straps and metal straps before, but my current everyday watch has this weird woven almost kevlar like material. My previous every day watch had a fabric with velcro strap. The thing is they're really comfy so I'm looking at more of the same.
Any suggestions? I did see the Sekonda 3039 chronograph watch in Evo magazine last month, are they any good? This comes with a tyre tread style rubber watch strap but as its only £80 I'm tempted to get that too!
Thanks in advance.

Thats perfect! And it looks good with a material strap too, which was part of my concern about such a thing. And its not badly priced, google says £114.75.
If anyone else has any suggestions please add them, I've got to start my new job first (first day is monday assuming no screw-ups), then I'll buy either of them or possibly both.

Grr! The one above doesn't exist on Seiko's site anymore. They do a SNDA57P1, which looks very similar. It seems I can get one online from a place called "The Watch Factory" for a very reasonable £131.25. Anybody heard of them before? Are the watch factory legit?
Annoyingly I can't find anywhere that does both the Seiko and the Sekonda.
