Hi All I know there are a lot of strap masters out there who routinely change straps on watches and between watches. I'm not really one as my DIY skills leave more than a little to be desired! So my watches pretty much stay on straps they came with, up until they fail. Case in point my Reverso still has its original ostrich strap from over 16 years back. Though recently noticed my Oris alarm had quick change straps. A thought occurred to me rather go on the hunt for a new watch maybe some new straps for the Oris might scratch that itch for a while. Bit of searching & found some I was quite interested in and ordered them. As an usual term when getting a new strap or straps in new shoes I thought I pair the straps up with some of my shoes & go the whole hog smile



New green strap - great colour, but seems a little thick & not that pliable, but should hopefully break in.



Blue suede - more comfortable straight of the bat & like the red highlights



The original - just wanted something different! Took a bit of time to understand process & get them to fit, but rather pleased with the results. Quite a character change from the original. Cheers JML
