What strap for my Dreadnaught Voyager?

[Darra8]

I have been lucky enough to get hold of my all time favourite watch, which doesn’t disappoint, apart from the bracelet! I’m not a massive bracelet fan anyway, but I honestly think it cheapens the overall look of the watch, so I’m on the hunt for something that will really suit it. I could just stick it on a quality nato, but want something that will really complement the watch.

I would be very grateful for some ideas, and pictures would be even better.

Thanks in advance,

Steve

Always liked mine on orange isofrane

How about this from DiModell

Whatever you choose buy a bottle of Loctite for the strap bars. I was lucky to spot this in time . . .



PS. Loctite 222.

After my near miss above, and having securely fixed the bars, I decided on a Nato only policy for this watch and have a selection, although they are swapped between the Voyager and Everest. Before this it was either the supplied rubber, as above, or a Hirsch Liberty, in the final picture.

These work well for me.

The Haveston in post #8, also shown at the bottom in my group shot, is the Fortress. This is the usual 2 piece style of Nato, Havestons are all now a one piece "RAF" or "pass through" style. The Fortress is a thicker material which suits the watch perfectly, so if you fancy it grab one as they still had some left last time I looked. What sets Haveston apart is their sliding keeper, which means no loose end tucked under and a cleaner less bulky profile. I put some measurements and pictures in a different thread, posts #21 and #27 here https://forum.tz-uk.com/showthread.p...light=Fortress

Hirsch Andy black and orange works well



As does a grey Toshi

I had mine on a hirsch curved end black leather with orange stitch and it was a perfect match, transformed the watch

Hirsch Robby for me - great match, though not a terribly cheap option. Inspired by Phil's contribution below:

I got one of the new Hirsch Performance straps on Tuesday. It's called Robby and has a sail cloth pattern over a caoutchouc core. I think it is just about the best strap I've tried so far for the Voyager. It even comes with a bead blasted buckle that is a perfect match for the watch case.

I wear mine on one of Eddies black and orange NATOs as Ralphy showed.

Works well.

In addition to what my esteemed friend says, the material I find most comfortable on the Haveston Fortress. We may never see it again, I’ve even been contemplating to buy another as a spare!

I like the bracelet on mine... but then I like bracelets...

Same here!

[Darra8]

Love the look of the Hirsch Robby, and think it might look rather good, but have pulled the trigger on a Haveston Fortress, as I am a bit of a sucker for nato.

[crazyp]

Same here!

hehe! I may do so whenever I buy another Haveston.

Well done - it really is that good. Let us know your thoughts!

Put mine back on bracelet the other day and much prefer it. I think the strong lugs suits the bracelet more. Now wearing it more often than when it was on a strap
