I have bought two things from Xeric and they have both blown away my expectations. The Soloscope II is unique to say the least and a great conversation starter, and the black horween leather strap I ordered for another watch is exeptional. It is light but incredably comfortable, has a lovely smell, and does not scratch as easily as other straps. Their watches are unique and they set themselves even further beyond competitors with they high quality Horween Leather. It is the highest quality leather I have ever felt, including that of misceslaneous leather goods. I feel it is also necessary to mention the truly world class customer serive. Alissa responded within a day every time, was exeedingly polite, and fixed my issue immediately.
