Here is the strap I plan to get for my Milgauss Black (Not GV)

And here is a VERY quick Photoshop I did to give me a very rough idea of what it will look like. I am talking super dodgy Photoshop here, 2 minute job, it's not even the same strap, just one very similar and all I did was crudely colour over the watermark on that stock photo of a Milgauss and then paste and perspective/warp the strap so it looks like it's on the watch. Also the stitching was different so I clone stamped that out too, but you can see I didn't bother doing the bit at the top.

that looks awesome!! i really like that combo.

though, if i may, maybe consider getting a 22mm or 24mm strap and notching out the ends? the lugs on the milgauss are so thick and chunky, it may balance the watch out a little more if you have a thicker strap on there. again, no idea how that would look, just thinking out loud.

That does look pretty sweet, i had considered a black leather band with either orange or green stitching. Will have to keep looking i guess.

If I may be so bold, I don't think green would be a good choice. Too much green is not a good thing, you've already got the green silicon ring and the entire face of the watch is AR green as well, adding green stitching might be a bit of an overload.

I remember seeing a GV on an orange and green NATO and it just looked vulgar. To that effect though, I also feel like the strap I've chosen (Black croc, orange stitch) also wouldn't work on your GV as well as it will on my black, because the orange may clash with the 3, 6, 9 markers and the abundance of green. If it were me I would keep the strap neutral as the GV is very colourful. But this is, of course, entirely personal opinion and it wouldn't be a crime to ignore me if you want haha :D
