    Its on the last but one hole on my 7.5" wrist. Its the first strap I have had on a speedy thats really comfortable. I have just ordered the brown version for my brown dial sandwhich.

    Have that same make of strap and style on my speedy as I type. Very comfortable.

    I also have the brown version, but it's more a brown/dark burgundy....

    Anyway, they look great on the pro.

    Just as a side note, Goldsmiths used to stock Morelatto's until one day, some bright spark decided it would be better to replace with Hirsch.

    Whilst I think Hirsch make a quality product, many of their straps aren't as comfortable for me as the Morelatto ones. The Morelatto straps are softer and fit the wrist better.

    Really nice strap. Not sure it'll fit my puny 6.5 inch wrist though...

    Brown Arrival

    The brown version of the Morrellato Rugby has arrived! just right for my "Chocolate" dial Speedmaster as well, IMHO!

    I have seen a lot of pics of other Rally type straps favoured by Speedmasters wearers, but I think as this version is 5mm and padded it looks, to me anyway, better somehow!

    Ebay (oh no) just did a search, there are lots of OEM bits about on there. it came in an Omega packet and was less (I think) then £30.

    Hope that helps

    Thanks.

    Have to say this distressed brown Slovakian strap looks great on my Broadarrow Speedie.

    Sorry for bumping the thread - but do you know what size of Omega buckle I need to fit this strap?
