I think anything that overpowers the watch head is a poor combination.
Overly thick, parallel cut leather straps on standard watches is something I just don’t get, on a Panerai they can look great, most others they don’t. Same for colours that clash with the face colour. e.g. black dial with a tan/ light brown strap.
Still I know nothing about good taste.
Most OEM Panerai straps are 24/22, and not too chubby. That's the way to go. I usually wear 24/24 Dirk's, and again, not too thick. But the strap arms race led to some chunky monkeys!
Remove ‘prefect’ from the thread title and all will be well.
I know two tone is a polarising style choice for many but I just love it on the Alpinist
I love this watch but since it arrived on a VERY shiny navy croc strap ive been on a mission to make it as casual as I am.
While I was pondering options I came across a burgundy bulang on eBay and thought that even though its not a colour I would usually go for it might look quite warm with a blue dial as I tend to go for cooler colours generally.
Anyway, I think its very successful, although I foresee it being on a more muted colour soon enough as some a grey suede plonked through the letterbox this morning.
^IMO a light tan strap would suit that nicely. Suede perhaps.
Amazon have the same strap (different buckle) for £20 with next day delivery too
Not $8 but still cheaper
Silicone 2-tone on Damasko DC80 today - very comfy and nicely made, and the quick-release clips are appreciated.
Finally found a nice genuine 16mm Hamilton buckle for the Hirsch which now completes my KPPM
New 16mm left, old 18mm right that came on the stock 18mm NATO which I never liked. If anyone is interested in the Canvas strap with the 18mm buckle let me know.
Cheap 5 quid rubber just for a bit of fun. Not so sure

A custom build, came on a black rubber strap but i decided it was better on this Zuludiver sailcloth strap.

Loving this new green EO strap with bronze hardware on the Zenith CP2.
857 UTC on Watchgeko Zuludiver rubber nato. Brushed hardware is a good match to the case and slightly matt finish on the strap works well with the dial. Smells nice too.
A trio of Nick Mankey arrived this morning. Loving the first.

I had three new straps arrive yesterday, all with a watch in mind
I think this one works well, a buffalo rally strap. It’s a nice counter to the shark skin I wear on my other 903.
I think this one also works well, a grey rally but in cow hide this time
I am not sure about this one, it’s a plastic / rubber type strap, I want something different to the Bund on my Heuer Bund, I am more than happy for suggestions on what people think would look good on this one?
I must say I have never seen you posting a watch I don't like to be honest, these two sinn are stunners! I have seen part of your collection on an SOTC thread, impressive!
Not a very original suggestion I suppose but I think a canvas strap of similar colour would pair perfectly with your sinn!
This strap is nice but the texture looks a bit odd imho
Love the black rallye on the 903!
