    Seiko 6309 cushion case quartz hybrid on an ISO is a favourite of mine

    This one isn't a great picture but the bars on the NATO are gold to match the gold bezel edge, hands and dial print. Shouda kept it!

    Obviously not the same watch but this strap of eddies would go well with that polar

    I quite like this thread. Every watch I own has a bracelet fitted because I have always taken the view that they are the perfect match, are much stronger and have longevity built into them.

    I have recently started to look at Patek Philippes and nearly every one looks much better with a strap fitted. Most of my stuff is Rolex and the one thing I hate about Rolex is that most of them are a bit loud. My Daytona in particular with PCLs just attracts attention.

    When I get back to the UK, I may well buy up a couple of good leather straps because the ones in this thread look brilliant.

    A very versatile strap - curved ended shark skin with deployant, made by Strap Works.

    Bought originally for this Seiko Presage:





    ... but working equally as well on a Steinhart OVR:

    Bloody hell, shark skin?? That’s a new one on me! What kind of shark? Or am I being stupid and you don’t actually mean shark skin.

    I'm happy changing straps frequently. It often results in little surprises that you can enjoy for a few days till the next change. Changing a look by this method is also much cheaper than buying yet another watch. Today's experiment on the Tudor heritage chrono for example. I don't think it should work but I kinda like it..... till the next strap change

    Nothing better than an old sub on a NATO.

    Ordered a phenomenato for my 2254.50 when I bought the watch. Now that it’s here, I’m not sure which I prefer. Looks great but also surprised by how much I love the bracelet.

    still loving this but I can't find a suitable strap - real shame the original croc didn't come with it. Toyed with a Perlon. Just not sure at all

    Love the look on a leather NATO but it wears better on a thicker leather with deployant.

    Zenith Elite 670 on a Phoenix Elite NATO.
    The combo matches as well as the names.

    This combo is the one that gets the most comments from non-WIS.
    I see it as an unfashionable homage to Daniel Wellington

    Completely different, but this is a perfect fit for me:



    Black diver (SKX007) on a red strap: bold but still not too much.
