Looks good to me. Comfy in the summer.

Looks like granny knitted it, no thanks, still not as hideous as a Nato
That's funny. Bracelet man then?Quote:

Looks great - especially the brown.
Perfect for summer and a more formal look than a NATO strap with all the metal hardware.

I tried these type of straps a while back but the one i bought was just really uncomfortable. they do look good with certain watches though.
Hmm I seem to recall that I bought a perlon strap a while ago. May try that on my SKX007.
Wonder if they suit perlon?

Perlons are cool as hell, especially on a sub. Also look good on dressier watches. Navy blue on a datejust looks great!

I've got a 21mm Perlon waiting for me in the UK for my IWC Doppel, and I'm looking forward to trying that out!
I agree, I’m afraid. I really don’t see the attraction of Perlons at all... although to be fair I’ve never tried one.Quote:

I must admit after not wearing one for a while I think it's going to feel scratchy but they don't - I wore this watch exclusively last year on holiday and I barely noticed I was wearing it.
That said - they do sometimes need some 'fettling' to get them comfortable - for example I normally sand down the ends a little bit to avoid them scratching (some are better sealed than others) and tend do sew the excess on the far side of the strap (Just behind the 10 min mark on the bezel of pic below) to stop it peeking out from underneath.

If you tried a cheap one then I'd try again. In fact even some that aren't cheap can be uncomfortable. I think I got one from Watch Obsession that wasn't too good.Quote:

Where are people buying their Perlon straps from? I’m not having much luck finding a UK source...
Yellys for modern, timesofplenty for vintage. Neither UK based but no problems with international orders.Quote:

+1 to this. My first perlon was from them and it was low quality for a premium (compared to those from China) price. Both strap material and buckle were 2nd rate compared to others I've since sourced.Quote:

The mistake people make is to buy copies that aren't genuine Perlon - they tend to be scratchy and lack substance.
Best to only buy genuine Eulit ones.
There a UK based seller on eBay.
+1 ^^^
Eulit are very comfortable (the Panama style is the only one I've worn)
Probably 90% of mine are on bracelets yes. Even my Meg and MonsterQuote:

Rios is the only other manufacturer I'd rate alongside Eulit.Quote:
