I feel silly for saying this, but it never occurred to me to envision a leather strap on an Elegante.

I don’t know why that’s the case, since I like having various straps for all of my watches and often envision them with different options. But the ‘mock ups’ you have here show a really great look for the watch—I hope you get the pins you need soon and start experimenting!

Fooling around with straps

I have had this idea in my mind for some time. I don’t have the correct pins so they are not mounted. It think it changes the watch quite a bit. ...
Yes me too 😊

Somehow the brushed titanium and the suede seem to go well together.
Interesting idea

and I bet that compared to the rather thick rubber strap these will make the watch feel quite different as well.
I think it's a great idea

and I think I'd like to give it a shot as well. I had a strap done by Vladimir Petrov recently, and, while he does take some time, I'm really quite satisfied. Going to him for the Vagabondage as well. And you're right, it is a complex strap at the lug end...
Thank you, Tony 😃

It does seem to get the most votes. I’m seriously considering getting a costum strap now.
Beautiful!

The gray brings out the beauty of the titanium
grey for me

does it have the same strap size at the vagabondage? if so, you can probably use the same spring bars no?
Thank you, A 🙏

Same size. But they need to have the pull tabs. The is no room for a tool Bremen the lugs and the strap. It means I need to have a hole in the strap for the pull tabs.
Thanks a lot for voicing in :-)

It gives the watch a less sporty feel but I like it a lot. It’s a big change from the rubber.
