    This burgundy/oxblood shell cordovan strap goes very well on the Heritage Ranger.

    Looks brilliant, good call. Would like to try one on my Planet Ocean.

    I tried this combo when I had my PO. I think it worked quite well.

    Thanks, yes very comfortable having just oiled the bund strap, which I don't normally wear but as you say it suits the watch well.

    This is an absolute beauty!

    Unbelievable that strap is only £4, how is it for comfort? Looks fantastic.

    Thanks! It’s great and still going strong. Quite thin and nice and supple so probably the most comfortable strap I have for that watch, partly also because the holes are in the perfect place, too.

    £4 was an absolute bargain. I haven’t got it wet but wouldn’t anyway. The watch (and strap) is also for sale ;)

    A few that I'm quite pleased with....

    This came on a boring "H" bracelt, tan nato inmproves it no end...



    This used to reside on black rubber, much better on a black / grey canvas nato…



    Cant even remember what this came on but it was simply made for a SS shark mesh (absolute pig to size!)!...



    This was on black leather, looked atrocious! The brown Perlon suits it down to the ground!...



    My absolute favourite, was on a blck isofrane but having seen similar on Stevosstraps I knew it had to reside on this

    One more... This is back on the original bracelet because its SOOOO good but it looks awesome on a plain black canvas nato….


  34. #534
    Tried out a few straps on my xmas pressie, settled on this one. Its V thick black nato off ebay, much prefer this to the Squale SEL bracelet in both looks and comfort. Possibly a bit high of wrist...

    Can't go wrong with a strap from @erikasoriginals I now have five and often swap them around.

    The BBR looks great, might have to get myself one of those straps & just swallow the price!

    Can’t remember but I think they are only about £45 or something. Pricey but not bank breaking

    I love the look of those Lacos. I keep looking at the Kempten. I always wanted a Leipzig but was worried it would be too big. I now appear to have run out of reasons not to buy one... Ooops.

    I'm going to throw this in the ring. I think it just looks right!

    It’s and OEM Omega NATO strap. The fabric is smoother and softer than your average NATO. At £120 it might seem expensive but I never got on with NATO’s until I had an Omega one.

    I’ve intended to put these together for months - eventually got around to it yesterday.



    Very pleased with the result.
    Much de-blinged compared with the bracelet PCLs.

    Even though the orange on the dial is minimal it does seem to fit in with the strap. Good call I think.
    Started out with nothing. Still have most of it left.
