I think that works beautifully - tan strap / blue dial just "pops"Originally Posted by colin t

Oddly enough, those don't offend me - they're a strong flavour, and therefore suit the watch. You did the right thing in having no stitching down the straps - they look better like that.
It's a good strap, if a little green. Shame it's on a shaved dog's foreleg. :)How about this guys, & happy now Walter? (LOL)
P.S. not my wrist, I needed a slim one to show off the strap.
The Dan Henrys look good, the Panerai 8-Days looks great, the blue rallye strap on the Speedie looks good.
That's more like it. If this thread is about the perfect combo, then that's a winner - thought, care, and a good match.

Rob - your Blancpain looks nice on that Bond. But that orange strap on your ExII looks tatty. Have you checked out Nono's eye-candy thread? There are some great options there, even in orange!Canvas on EXP2

Tatty is indeed the plan. I have worn it on orange NATO and rubber, but currently in a "tatty" phase. I refer you to the canvas on my 614, which you may recall as the "from a dead body " strap.W̴̱̜̺̃̈́̈́̿h̷̝̼̒̽ỏ̸͔͉͉̻̑͑͝ ̴̨̈́̄̓d̶̥͖̘̦͌͘̕͝á̴̫r̶̞̆̑̎̈́ ̹͉̼e̴̯̪̯͝s̷͓̦̱͌̒̈́ ̵̗̘͎̱̗͒ş̴̪̒̇u̷̹͙̓m̶͋*̛̙̚m̸ ̈̃̀͋

The Hircsh Ranger seems to work well with the Tissot. Quite thick but very comfortable.
Give this another try showing more of the strap.

Thanks they look great value
Ploprof on Isofrane...looks good and IMO is comfortable with a heavy head.
Liking the look of this combo at the moment
I accidentally fitted the longer (holed) side inside out to show the PINION text & logo - which looks pretty good (IMHO).
Many thanks to Piers for kindly sending the strap with a recent purchase !

The Strapcode Jubilee adds a bit of formality to the playful looks of the Monster. A balanced look, to say the least.

It was a seatbelt NATO from Georgesstraps. I like the seatbelt smooth feel, the colour works fabulously and the chunky buckle and keepers are awesome. I didn't like that it made the watch sit high, so I turned into 2 piece

Perlon for summertime: Smiths PRS-36 with Eulit tropical strap (NOS 1962)
VERY comfortable, as I live in Greece.
Im quite pleased with the carbon fibre effect Isofrane style rubber on the Grantour
But I ordered a couple more options for the summer too...

Still experimenting with my Tudor GMT, it was on a blue Hirsch leather with curved ends which is pretty good combination, I received this strap today and I'm not convinced, don't think NATO's are for me.
What is the perfect 'smart' strap for a Tudor GMT??
Might be tempted with a Stevo para canvas strap soon, handsomely rugged.New in from David, SteveO strap for the invisible dial U1

This looks great - Quite fancy trying one of these on a Stowa Flieger. Any chance of a link to where you got them? Thanks.Give this another try showing more of the strap.
I really like the look of this sailcloth on the Explorer.
Imagine take from the net but think I will give one a go.
