I think so too!

New addition. Barton Cordura:

An update! Got a charcoal Croyde 2 from Watchgecko recently for the Stowa Bronze, had to order an 18mm bronze buckle from Stowa too as there is no taper on this strap. Not cheap but I have to have it...

The stock strap is a German leather strap with the Flieger dimples. This strap is a Barton Bands cordura/silicone hybrid!

Currently I have a few straps that rotate on this watch:

Got some Barton Canvas two-pieces and really like them. The blue suits the Laco and the grey camo suits the Ham.

The new Pelagos FXD is certainly looking nice! My mate is looking for one and has his name down at an AD to be notified when they get one in.

Haha thanks! I think Seiko definitely missed a beat with this watch by not also bundling it with a tropic strap and putting quick release bars on the bracelet. I mean sure the cost may have...

Finally found a nice genuine 16mm Hamilton buckle for the Hirsch which now completes my KPPM :distress:

New 16mm left, old 18mm right that came on the stock 18mm NATO which I never liked. If...

Had the blue and olive Bonnie tropics on my Baltics and the are indeed superb quality and comfortable. Expensive, but well worth the price!

It's all good :)

I can't stop looking at the thing hah.

I think you have confused the quoted message lol. My watch is a genuine Stowa...

That is rather cool! Is it copper/bronze btw?

I have put another Hirsch on a new watch, think these rubber straps go well with many watches. The black colour is lightly textured that looks rather...

I think you're right, there are loads of watches out there that are conscious decision watches as opposed to say a Sub or SMP because they are insanely popular and as such easily recognised...

That's pretty cool lol, was he surprised you recognised the watch or taken aback as in not wanting anyone to recognise it?

Copy pasted from my ph reply but as it's relevant for this thread... :)

I bought a Hirsch PURE natural rubber strap from a watch strap shop online (Germany based). They seemed to be the only place...

Got another new straps today for the Pilot. Italian rubber (vanilla scented) one piece by MEYHOFER (it's clear the OEM is Boneto Cinturini as it's the exact same as the ZuluDiver 298). 18mm of course...

Tapered does seem to be hard to come by, I have yet to see one either!

Thanks folks! I've always practised photographing everything from objects to people rather than just focusing on one area. For me I find it helps as each genre skill aids in another one way or other.

Found the perfect strap for my Pilot Pioneer, the Zuludiver Croyde 2:
