    Watch/Strap combo thoughts?



    Just curious what you think of this combo?

    I have a strange taste, but I think it looks cool

    Not my type but I am in the same boat as you in relation to experimenting with straps

    No to the first. The Zulu is not bad. Try the classic colour natos though and maybe a red/black combo.

    The first doesn't work for me. Not even a good fit. Like the Zulu though

    Don't really like the first - but do like the look of the Zulu and specifically the original one

    It's not easy to get the strap right. What about the new Hirsch performance straps?

    Yes I like the Black/Red one, also like the Black/Red Nato that Josh posted too!

    Yes it's been misshaped by squeezing it into the 20mm lugs of my SMP!

    Seriously, try some NATOs, the metalwork is not quite so prominent which can overshadow the watch and unbalance the look.

    I like khaki Zulu look, but this "raw", thick leather strap doesnt fit imo
    You may try either light brown leather (if any leather strap suits diver)
    or go with Sailcloth strap or rubber

    Yes I know what you mean Josh, those 5 ring Zulu's are like wearing one of those old fashioned charm bracelets in comparison to a NATO

    My vote is the red black nato or sailcloth
