Hornet 1 Posted April 13, 2015 How about a replica nylon-velcro strap to the same design as the ones used by astronauts? These guys do some: http://www.gasgasbones.com/ggb-goodies.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PeterPC 0 Posted May 6, 2015 Each to their own, but I think black aligator. Even better still would be if the strap had curved lug ends to snuggle up against the case. I've recently got a Speedie myself (on ss bracelet) and that's the strap I'll be buying. Also like the double ridged black leather ones suggested above, but aligator would still be my preference. As much as I love a nice rich and worn brown strap, I think they detract from the classic beauty of these timepieces. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lars100 0 Posted June 23, 2015 When you see these beautiful leather straps on an Omega, it converts your mind from always steel which was my preference in the past. Decisions decisions..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
