The JLCs are very elegant on their straps... Love them... NOW.... the stingray.... can't get more exotic than that....... must get a lot of attention huh??? and the strap is on such a cool OMEGA, blue is sooo cool
A friend offered me this watch , he got it with a trade and knew i like ,,different styled ,,watches . So thats how i got this watch . Nice fun watch . Not really my style but I couldn’t resist the offer .
Some of the more enjoyable straps I have are from less commonly used leathers Nubuck ostrich in navy Anaconda leather - with a very unique scale pattern and feeling on the strap when you touch it And gold stingray, to freshen up a vintage 2481 ...
The blue nubuck ostrich is a Vietnam based seller off eBay, and the anaconda was a one off project from a great guy in Italy who has made many straps for my vintage watches. Happy to give details via PM!
Lets kick start with a Jubilee.. I find rivet very sexy. If we talk bracelet - BP X-71 ought to be included. And if you do PAM....I have quite a lot of straps and many have yet to be mounted. Gator on the 87 and stingray on the 268. A water proof dive str...

That galuchat - a very citrus vibe for me, taste a little sour in my mouth... Tweed or cloth - I have not elevated to this level yet, love it one the OMEGA very dapper, and Uber classy.. Blue electric toad - what can I say? oozes reptile-lity, if you will...
This week is the perfect theme for me as I absolutely do not wear bracelets. I have to say my favorite go-to strap is tan “Egyptian Serie” strap from a well known maker in Indonesia. It pretty much works on everything as evidenced on the two watches below...
Fire and foremost, what a beautiful family, you included, . Glad you are able to share some great family memories with fellow Purists. Gosh, where do I start? “Egyptian Serie” from Indonesia, fancy fancy my friend, or at least sounds fancy and “looks” fan...
the one on the Leonidas is very special and the lizard matches very well for the Speake Marine but the winner is the ‘Covid’-red for me. It is so unusual! Who is the maker and what kind of material has the strap? Truly yours, Adam
.. specific touch, quite unusual & a bit eclectic - Well done, my friend ! Have a relaxing remainder of Sunday & a good start into the upcoming week ! Best, hs
The orange themed straps on the Ming and Seiko, love it, funny, I just added orange juice to a drink I made. The Gronefeld, with that blueish (maybe another color) , strap, may be a little funky, but good looking enough for the office. I hope to have one ...
.. for the Gronefelds, molding in and of course the Vianney Halter, where you picked that splendid pale greenish tone ! Really very well done, must be a pleasure to indulge into your watch & strap box. Wear them all in the very Best of your health ! Best,...
My latest addition... on the water resistant Sturgeon strap. Certainly the most exotic leather strap I own, just got the correct size in from O&J. HAGWE All, Cheers, Tim Oh, I almost for got to add this “funky 70’s” intergrated bracelet on my UN: ...
The Ochs und Junior Moon Phase, what a damn fine piece of good-old horology. Total WIS watch, a piece where “I," certainly “sit up,” to give it respect, love it so much. Sturgeon, assuming we are talking about the fish. You know? I thought the leather cam...
Yes, the fish! I actually saw these for the first time with Beat in Lucerne about 3 years ago, and was impressed at how they wear. My watch is an Annual Calendar rather than a Moonphase ;-) although the original owner/designer was inspired to have Saturn ...

Been anxiously awaiting your post my Sire. What a beautiful assortment of colors for your PAMs in the first pic, oh my, your colors cover every thought of occasion and mood. Very hard for me to pick which color I am partial to, probably between the purple...
... comments. It is always a big pleasure for me to participate in our weekly WS. I’m happy that you like the straps combos I share here. Not exotic leathers or fabrics but playful colors to change a bit the character of my watches. Some colleagues may th...
Also liked the selection for the PP Aquanaut !.. BTW: what material or texture (Cordura ?) is the black one/with white stiches, if I may ask ? - Guess that’s a great alternative for the black rubber/coutchuk, the Aquanaut comes along most frequently.. Bes...
... the black straps with white stitching is commonly known as "sail cloth" and it is like a plastic thread canvas. The Blancpain Fifty Fathoms comes with a similar material straps. Mine are after market ones. They are offered with several colors of stitc...
Your Panerai strap collection is certainly extensive and must provide much enjoyment. The last photo of your PP Aquanaut must qualify for the best matched strap for this watch. Kind regards and have a great weekend. The Captain
... straps chosen for the Aquanaut. Agree with you with the last set. I regret I can´t stand the original rubber straps. Well, any kind of rubber as a matter of fact. Thank you for your good wishes and I wish an excellent week end as well. Cheers! Abel
Would love to hear the stories you have on this strap. Moreover, I would to see more pics of this awesome strap in different lighting conditions... Excellent!!
I always look forward to fall/winter to break out my extensive collection of custom leather straps. This one is my favorite due to the wrist presence it provides. May I present my distressed leather “Bund” strap mounted on my favorite chronograph...a ca. ...
This may be the first one posted on this Wristcan, outside of my fake pictures, my dear Sire.... A modern sized Breitling deserves a good sized Bund distressed leather strap, no? Thank you for posting. Awesome!
straps are one of my favourite topics, because they are changing the character of the watches. Without much further ado, here are the pictures, my mates: Oystrich: ...
Why the heck not? Sublime, it is, the combination of case color, dial color, and then strap color of the ostrich. Makes me think of honey color tones, maybe I need to grab a bar of gold also, This is another holistic piece that connotes both funky and ele...
JLC has a special place in my heart, seriously, that calf color and the elegance of the Reverso case is just so classic and timeless. However, DAMN!, that Ming!, the case color, case texture, unique markers on the dial. NOW, add in the supple calf strap. ...
Your wrist and case, are so freaking lucky to have the awesome straps you acquired. The rustic and quasi-aged look of the strap with the great blue dial of the Moser is a combination I am not sure I will see in this lifetime. Okay, then I'll settle for pi...
Alright, the Minerva is quite lovely, in a traditional elegant sense, I can see myself wearing it to an opera with some pretty dapper chaps... The Habring... yummy yummy, the texture and color of the strap is reminding me of blueberry pie from Maine, add ...
Hi Ted and friends ! Choosing straps and bracelets can completely change the way your watch looks and give it a new burst of pleasure. Just a few examples of indulging in this sport ;-)) ... Panerai always springs to mind Have a great weekend Best regards...
Re, the PAMs, I am def going with the light honey colorish straps as my first choice, I am in need of a little "light" relief. However, the black strap you have paired with the gin is lovely in a simplicity sense, pair it with a dial that has not wording ...
It’s fun to play with the straps and completely change not only the look but the feel of a Panerai. The black strap with the Gin photo was very enjoyable ;-)) Thanks being a great host this weekend on WristScan. Best wishes The Captain
Panerai will always be a special part of my collection partly because you can have much enjoyment deciding on the strap choice. Best regards The Captain
Seems like you are ready for the next flight or flying adventure... The aged look, if I can call it that, means its no fuss and ready for business... Great!!!!
I actually have a second “Panda” version of the same Breitling Chronomat 0818 that also gets mounted on the Bund occasionally that I like even more. This one is in NOS condition that was purchased from a deceased Breitling factory watchmaker’s estate havi...
Kind of reminds me of one of the Zenith bracelets... Reminds me of these housing type structures I seen somewhere, oh, I don't know where, but these structures were memorable... And you have it in a tripartite in one photo. Superb!!
Bring in the big gun PAMS.... The first pic seems to show you have some serious diving gear that is coupled with some lovely supple leather straps, those straps look mighty sturdy. Loving the assortment of straps in the second pic, all the straps seem to ...
Now that is an assortment of straps... Seems you have one for every occasion. Favorite for me is the leather strap currently on the Tudor, the color and texture fits the watch so well....
The rubber ones 26mm are all for my Garmin and are not expensive so I ordered all the available from Amazon! As for the others sizes, most of them were similar story as I was trying new strap instead of getting new watch to change things around...FYI this...

During the journey to find the most authentic strap I had the pleasure to meet some of the great strap artist out there and talk with them about straps. So much too learn. And the journeys goes on and on. Today I have a nice straps collection which I keep...
You literally have all the colors and kinds of straps I can think of for a Panerai. My favorite, personally, by far, must be the strap, in the first pic, on the Panerai to the left. I think I have seen you take that one in the water and put it to "task." ...
