    Strap options for a Mark II Speedmaster

    I'm looking to replace the bracelet on my Mark II with either a 20mm leather strap, a notched strap, or put it on some mesh.

    The leather option I'm thinking of is a racing type strap (even though the watch isn't a racing version) with the holes in it near to the watch case. Will this suit it?

    If I go for the notched then do I have to go custom? Or are there off the shelf alternatives. I've had a quick look round, but I'm not able to find very much.

    Alternatively, if I go for some mesh, who would you recommend?

    Hmm, I'm no fan of mesh bracelets on non-divers.

    On the other hand a perforated strap always works on a chronograph, regardless of coloured highlights on the dial.

    I have one of Abel's on my Speedy Mk2:

    Wot he said.

    MkII Racing dial with Di Modell Rallye/Orange Stitching is a classic combo.
