A slightly trivial example maybe but this is the service sheet for my MB2 that’s with them now.
Pretty obvious this is a Bremont so no idea why they are walking away from something distinctive...

That alt1-p is just the ticket, need to pick one up at some point.
I’m unconvinced by what I’ve seen which is a shame because I was interested in what was coming. I have an MB2, the brand stuff...
Personally I like the S and SDR. Tick the tegiment box if you go steel though. Not seen a scratch on my 857.
Here’s the AliExpress one next to the Tudor.
AE - around 30.3cm for the whole thing, 29cm for the fabric part excluding buckle
T - 29.5 whole thing, 28.1 excluding buckle.
Not much in it but...
I managed to order ok from the OPs link.
I’ve ordered one and it’ll no doubt be too big for me so will see how easy to shorten it and post the results.
Stumbled across this on eBay - bit more expensive but less than the Tudor. Not seen one in person but looks like nato webbing which will be different to the Tudor webbing.

True indeed but a 200 quid strap still only has 10p worth of velcro on it.
It’ll be the fluffy loop side. Get the sewing machine out and sew in a new fluffy bit!

No but they’ve rinsed the moon connection to death and put 007 logos on divers watches, presumably to appeal to 10 year olds so just as tacky.
^^ like that. Definitely want to pick up an early Alt1-P or Z at some point.
Agree about the slightly confusing design direction. The collection was very clear early on then the vintage bandwagon seemed to make them lose focus and try all sorts of things. I love my MB2 but...
There’s an FXD thread with people posting different strap options. Newer posts are more strap related.

No issues, had for a year, wash it though! The only thing I think would need attention over time would be the fuzzy loop part of the Velcro but as per any Velcro. It’s an ideal strap for the watch....
Doxa sub 200? 42mm so maybe too big. https://uk.doxawatches.com/collections/sub-200/products/sub-200-caribbean?variant=43175930724593
Pushed the boat out this year with the FXD and Explorer II so thought l’d do a one shot to end the year. 2024 likely to be a quiet one.

If British, anything from Pinion take your fancy? There’s Bremont of course though maybe let’s not open that can of worms!
For me, one watch, do anything it would probably be a Sinn.

In
Tudor FXD - very wearable
Seiko Prospex Speedtimer - white dial, a lovely watch
Rolex Explorer II 226750 - another white dial, bit of an early birthday present to myself
Nothing out…I...
Their rubber NATO straps were £42 three years ago, now £68. Think they’re Bonetto Cinturini in which case at Watch Obsession £45.
