Vintage Daytona 6263 Strap recommendation: post your pics!

[hanl0210]

Dear community,

Since a cartel 6263 with black dial is on its way to me, I need your advise. I have multiple bracelet watches, so I would love to try some leather straps on my "new" daytona.

From what I've heard/read, strap width must be 19mm. Please correct me if I am wrong.

The only thing is...despite the fact that I love vintage straps and would like to buy one as well, my girlfriend hates straps without any stitching on the side of the strap - pity, but that kind is therefore out of question.

I'd be happy to see some pics to get some good-looking ideas!


Many thanks in advance,
hanl.

oooh, this looks interesting. What is this made of? Rubber/silicone?
and..20mm is the right size? or is it "squeezed" into the lugs?

thanks

Yes it is. This strap I use almost more than one year! Very cheap from flee-bay.

It's a 7753 DW. Bought to a member as is. I just replaced the stock crown with a 702 from Athaya.

A cordovan racing strap? Go to the hodinkee or bulang and sons for some idea. I actually wear my franken 6263 on a folded braclet.

I'm waiting for Rally straps with particular stitch
