Could keep the watch but I'd like the band only, price point at $30.

Wife and I met Tim Leatherman years ago at a show. Kindly gave my wife a neat and small multi-tool (with some new at the time bright color anodized handle). He mentioned cool tools are not just for men.

Looks all but useless - there's no leverage. And those hex wrenches are a joke!

Awesome. They are based in Portland, up near the airport. I could use one of these.

You would to adjust the size.
Is it one size fits all?
Do you need to choose which tools to give up, when you need to make it smaller.
Are there extra tools to add to the bracelet when you need to accomodate a larger wrist?
Good luck trying to keep that wool sweatersleave intact when you're waering it...;)

Gimmick, not for me. You can't just put a screwdriver on anything and call it a tool IMO.

Pass.

Looks like you just fold it to expose the tool

I had my Swiss-Tec confiscated in Chicago O'Hare ... They let me "mail" it home, took 3 months

Interesting. I EDC a Leatherman Wave as part of my daily "system". I'd be interested in seeing this up close.

EDIT: just not sure how "blingy" the bracelets are.

I'd sign up for a watch-band version. Probably not the plain bracelet, though. That's what I have pockets for.

And I would really want to be able to put my own watch in it. I think it would work great with my Seiko Orange Monster.

what would be awesomely ironic is if one of the screws on the band came loose and you needed the screw driver on the band..but you cant reach the screw..and you...argh!!

hey, look at the time! it's 9:11!

Thought about that.

Seems the slots in the screws may be big enough that a coin, maybe a dime would work. Certainly deep and beefy enough that something could be improvised.

While in your cramped airline business class seat, you can take apart one of these
