Del 4,437 Posted May 17, 2018 Dirty boy! Just thought I'd share a few pics of my gen Speedy sporting a new rallye-type leather strap bought from WatchGecko. The strap itself can be found here:- https://www.watchgecko.com/geckota-german-racing-watch-strap.php Very happy with the strap and combo. The strap is supple and well-finished - I very impressed with it for £40 delivered. Might even buy an Omega buckle for it. Hope you enjoy the pics! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I should’ve mentioned that the colour I bought was grey, but as you can see from the pics it’s more like a light brown or even khaki, even in the daylight. It’s exactly the colour I was looking for so I’m happy! 12 minutes ago, BM284 said: That looks totally lush Del - makes me want a moonie even more now! Thanks!

Nikosaldente 630 Posted May 17, 2018 Somehow looking at those photos, I imagined the Bulova equivalent with a racing strap..... Put both side by side like a fiction Drag Race on the Moon Surface.... How sick is that? Wonderful photos Del Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Will be saving the strap link Tbh, I’m not sure I’d pay much more unless it was a custom build but £40 is reasonable for this quality of material and finish imo. 3 minutes ago, Gingerbubba said: Damn it!

Orangutan 0 Posted May 23, 2018 Impressive! Of course that watch is so nice it would look great on anything, but you've found its perfect glove. I wish the Speedy reps could look so good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Munster87 0 Posted May 23, 2018 Here is a picture of my Gen speedy 57 re-issue. I am always torn between putting it on the SS strap as shown or on a black leather one I have? To me, the Speedy looks good on both. Which reminds me I will have to try and get an original buckle for the letter strap just to finish it off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
