I have a lovely one of these inbound and wondering on strap options to make the watch a bit more casual versus dressy. I see it maybe on one of Eddies two piece nylon with deployant in grey. Any suggestions welcomed.

Ive been wearing my MO on Stowa's grey croc until very recently when I put this on it, not exactly the most expensive strap out there though it works perfectly IMO. A grey NATO or perlon would work well, as might burgundy or beige/lighter shade of brown - anything that'll contrast against the blued handset should be good.

not sure what lug that Stowa is but i've got my Hamilton Jazzmaster on one of these:

I switched mine from a brown croc to a blue and white nato, much more casual, maybe to much for some but its currently working for me.
looking for a thin leather nato to wear it on, at least give it a try anyway.
This style of watch is far too classy to be worn on anything other than leather IMHO. I have an Archimede and have a Fluco London fitted to it, lovely bridle leather and just the right thickness and weight, at a very reasonable price.
I agree that it works best as a smart watch and had mine on a Cousins black alligator most of the time - looked great. I also wore it sometimes on the navy blue NATO that came with my PRS82. That looked pretty good with the hands but it's not really that kind of watch IMO.
I did exactly the same for a more casual look, they work so well on a blue-white NATO, suddenly the blued hands come alive.Quote:

It's actually really nice on the strap it came on Rob, but I do fancy trying either 2 piece canvas/nylon or a light grey leather....
Have a look here?

This was a tip from a member here- Andrea makes fine straps at VERY sensible prices she made one for my Sinn that is superb, for about 35US dollars posted.
EDIT: check the selfies section, there are a number of Stowa Marine commissions there, for some ideas.
Thanks, added a bookmarkQuote:

Awful light sorry, but just fit Eddie's strap with deployant and it looks and wears great IMO. I'll try and get some daylight photos at the weekend.

My everyday watch. I find it fairly versatile when matched with brown leather, canvas or NATO.
