Hi guys, I'm getting a 1675, a starter rep if you like but I know a lot of the time the bracelet lets them down. Happy to spend a few 100 $ on a better strap. In your opinion what looks good, I know its a personal thing but figured the more input/ideas I have the more informed decision I can take. Thanks in advance for your thoughts

Tried lots of options myself, but My favourite is either an oyster bracelet or a vintage leather strap like this.

Not a 1675, but close enough.

In my opinion the best leather strap maker is Emilio Colonna in Rome (Italy): he use the best materials and can produce 100% custom strap, you can choose colors, materials etc.
take a look on his instagram, he has some great examples (not to talk about some of those garil watches): https://www.instagram.com/emilio_colonna
He also has a regular website: https://www.natovintagestyle.com

I took a couple of straps, superb quality

Wow what a great little leather shop. I would love to visit that someday in Rome.
