childishthing 1 Posted December 13, 2016 So I have one of these on the way, the 50091 My question is, what looks good on these besides the standard black one? Please share some pics I know it'll come down to my preference, but I'm kind of a blank slate and I'm just really open to input. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Left Coast Guy 24 Posted December 13, 2016 I've got mine on a big pilot specific version from strapcode.....and it looks awesome. Strapcode has pics of their straps on BPs (and frankly, I'm lazy) so no pics of mine, but you'll see all you need on their site. Here's the version mine is on: Here's a link to that strap -- there are a bunch of others below, and a link on the side for IWC specific straps. Maybe a touch spendy, but I'v found the straps to be pretty high quality. I've got 4 different Strapcode straps now, and each compares well to a gen strap in finish. I just really like how their straps maintain the style and aesthetic of the original watch, yet have more modern style options. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IWC watches have a very high-end feel to them, I want the strap to feel nice too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do these compare with the Bond Tailored ostrich or gator? No, probably not. Its just doesn't have the same sheen or look of luxury. At the same time, the strap really works with the look of the watch. For me, this is my ideal strap for the Big Pilot.....wouldn't want anything else.

I have a gen Oris Big Crown PP and it looks sharp on a green (or grey) canvas strap.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
