Ordered the same black bomberjacket one from strapped-for-time with the discount Big Raji mentioned before finding this thread:) think it will be fine. Meanwhile had a gold-stiched Brady sailcloth lying around which imho does the job in a perfect way. This really is the vintage cool watch for the modern day:)

I called my AD regarding the gen strap and buckle they ask 530 Usd for it (390€). So I hope we are going to see a rep version soon for about the same as a omega rubber with buckle (85 usd).. Fingers crossed :)

Stap and buckle sepperate, 180 usd plus 120 usd.

Thank You! a Rolex AD in Poland says they can import this for me but ... approx. 2 months of wait! I think I will skip it, especially when told the fabric strap is quite short.

I was quoted 220SGD or ~175USD for the Fabric NATO-like strap. Absolutely insane.

Is the buckle even detachable? I think it's the strap only. People here in Asia ADs aren't very good communicators.. (Not racist)

The tudor fabric nato style strap definitely has a sewn in buckle. No separate pricing for buckle and strap.

The cracked leather one has separate pricing. I saw that mcjules has an original tudor strap to use as a template, and his leather looks awesome. I contacted parnis watch about a sterile version of the tudor buckle, but he only sells parnis branded ones.

I'm digging the end links with cracked leather strap. Gets rid of the rather large gap from case to strap.

I'm not a fan of the endlinks with the strap unless it's a tiny watch or if you have gorilla luthier wrists. The BB is a pretty big watch when you look at the long lugs, and with the endlinks you barely see the strap when looking at the watch from a straight view on your wrist.

Some great looking options. Why do I have the habit of buying straps before the watch...

That a pretty beautiful combination! Pour in more ideas please!

I already have some straps coming my way before the watch is even being sent.

I like to know if there is someone who wears his BLUE Black Bay on a blue leather strap - I´ve ordered a blue one a couple of days ago from strappedfortime and like to see how it looks in flesh on a blue Black Bay

Here it is ;-)

Mine on a Gunny "Blue BlackBay" strap. If you wish, you can ask the strap a little bit thicker at the lugs, you won't have a so big space between case ;-)













Under the sunlight, you'll see better this distressed leather quality.









I wanted to buy the gen, but this one has a better finish quality. The texture is and feels like a distressed leather while the gen looks like paint peeling like on a poor sofa leather :D No way to go gen!
