    Rolex Datejust on strap

    If you've seen my other post you'll have seen I bought a nice alligator strap today. Whilst primarily for my Breitling Premier, I thought I would give it a shot on my Datejust. Thought I would share it for those that might be interested.

    BTW for info, when the jubilee was off I thought it might be interesting to see if it fits on a Milgauss (seeing as people have put it on a GMTIIC) - it doesn't fit.

    Looks better for the change IMHO.

    Looks ok, a bit Rolex Cellini, but perhaps a more matte finish would have worked better. It's nice, but better on the bracelet IMO.

    Like most Rolex, the DJ looks better on it's bracelet.

    Good choice of strap though.

    I think it goes very well with that strap (and I'm a bracelet kinda guy)

    Alun, refreshingly different on the leather. However the jubilee just tips it IMO.... :thumbleft:

    Bracelet for me - but very good to see it on the strap and get an idea - interesting that that the jubilee fits on the GMT but not the Milgauss.
    It's just a matter of time...

    That particular dial suits the strap so much better, IMHO.

    I think it looks terrific on the strap. Are you going to leave it on, and get another strap for the Breitling?

    I think it looks great on the strap, a nice change from a bracelet.

    Having said that, I'm not a fan of jubilee bracelets anyway
