20mm Admiralty Grey on my CWC. I wear it in rotation. And a 18mm James Bond style that was bought for a watch that I no longer have. It gets very occasional wear.

Since the announcement that, sadly, Phoenix straps will soon be no more I thought maybe we could put together a gallery of pictures?
Here's a couple of late 1960s watches with some natty / tatty nylon:
Left: 18mm Admiralty Grey (issued) on a Smiths 6B
Right: 20mm Admiralty Grey with a deployant clasp on an Omega SM300

I have a bunch of others on various watches/in drawers, but I just got 8 new ones in the post today as the prospect of no more ever was too depressing! All seconds - 2 x 18mm grey, 5 x 20mm lucky dip bag and 1 x 22mm grey![]()
There might be a couple of CWC interlopers in there…
I have a lucky dip on the way
Tried this combo a few years ago

Preferred the fountains myself, well when they worked.
