I've just purchased a Tudor Submariner and while I like it on the bracelet I'm not that keen on butchering the links in order to reduce it in size for my wrist.

I tried it on my Everest band for my BLNR but it doesn't quiet fit right, you can see where it's not flush against the case (ignore the corrosion, it's currently in for a service and having the polished out). I emailed Everest and unfortunately they don't currently make a band that fits this watch otherwise I'd go for one in black or one of their new curved ended leather straps.

The problem I have with aftermarket straps/bands is I don't like the gap between the spring bar and the case and ideally I'd like one with curved ends like the Everest.
Does anything exist that fits my criteria, if not I'm happy to see some other suggestions.

ah yes, forgot to mention I don't like those end links either. Thanks for the suggestion thoughOriginally Posted by hughtrimble
A well worn admiralty grey nato would work best in my opinion.
Otherwise a JPM vintage style leather in dark brown (and don't worry about the gap between watch and strap - not such a helpful suggestion I appreciate)
Other than that, I don't think any straps would work at all.

JPM Vintage leather in lightish tan is a good shout. As they're quite a fat leather they seem to fill the gaps.
I think a Tudor dive watch looks good with an Erika MN strap.

I agree with this
So much so that I have a grey one on order for the Pelagos (with lumed centre stripe)
Should arrive tomorrow with luck.
This arrived this morning
It's quite cool as the centre stripe is also lumed.
What is it?
Tweed anybody?
In the Sotadic Zone, apparently.
It's from Erika's originalsWhat is it?

Tweed looks good.
As if a Pelagos needed more lume
Thanks; I hadn't appreciated that there are other colours available now. I have one of the original MN straps (bands) and I'm not mad about them but maybe I should look again.
In the Sotadic Zone, apparently.
The quality of the newer version is better
The hardware is better finished and the have lass of a homemade feel
The fabric does not have the rubber / elastic smell they sometimes have.
I will be getting another green on for my Tudor sub
Be very interested to see pic of the strap lume?I agree with this

Was expecting a bit much for it to stand up to the Pelagos lume. DAMN I forgot how bright that bad boy is. I’m gonna go put mine on and pull the blinds
