3 New Strap Options for my FF

[captainjz16]

I need some help on this one. I just got these three in and can't decide. the canvas strap I've been using is a little to casual for my office attire.

Option 1

Option 2

Option 3

I like option 3. I suggest a nato/zulu..

hard to tell, please ship to nj for 3-6 months in depth testing.

I like ther idea of a nato, but but it's too casual for me. I keep looking at DeLuca Straps, but I'm not sold yet.

Too casual? You gotta get real leather nato/zulu straps.

I have this on my 1969 omega speedmaster pro.

This guy makes custom leather natos in any color combo.. He just added rubber nato straps. They look bad ass in the pics. They will be a home run or look like crap.

Gunny leather nato review..

If you are seeking a little dressier look for the office, I'd vote for #2 and #3. The shark certainly dresses up the BB (I have mine on a black shark more than half the time) and I love that 'tweener" look of the grey - good for office or more refined casual wear. The distressed bomber is a nice look, but I think of it as more casual than the other two.

How about a black Safiano leather strap??? Like this, but in OEM measures....

Where is this from ?
And I'm looking for something like 140/80 !

 

[karesz501]

It's from one of our Supporting Vendors - SMP Lover I already have one made, its 100% custom so you can have any length and stitching color. He has other Safiano colors as well.

I was thinking on a Horween Shell Cordovan strap as well, but Europelli or Toshi does not make tapered straps... And horween is pretty hard to come by as I have learned, but its the most exquisite leather I ever had, period.

I put this Gunny strap on mine.
The Fifty Fathoms bezel is bright and shiny so I wanted a strap that matched it.
This can be used as a casual or dress watch:

I've bought a strap from Peter (Gunny Straps) before, looks terrific especially with the padding. The SMP safiano strap would also look very cool and modern.

I like the first picture posted. Vintage looking leather is a good casual but dressy enough option

What's wrong with the sailcloth that it came on? I like the SMP Safiano as well. I think for office wear, a black or very dark grey works the best.

Given the watch is black with green lume, I would not personally choose a brown strap. Based on recommendations by others, I upgraded the rep sailcloth strap with a 24mm Brady sailcloth which fits just fine and somehow ups the whole experience. YMMV.

Boom
canvas Zulu by strapcode

I would love to see the FF on a Hirsch Robby. You would have to squeeze the 24mm version but the sailcloth look with a divers underside would be great.
