I have always liked Ostrich straps. Recently I had one made for my Reverso 1931. Something about them says "casual" to me. I think it also brings out the sporty aspect of the watch....  

And it looks great. Another surprising combo is a striking red croc strap....I know it sounds weird but it works (for me at least)... Unfortunately the one I saw was the last piece with a slight imperfection, so I had to pass.

I could see how the red strap might work. It would kind of be a Reverso Rouge, just in reverse : )

Reverse Rouge Reverso....TT31 on Red Croc

I am not very convinced by the strap on the " Red ", though. I don't know, but I would have preffered a smoother croc, more vintage looking, in black, or why not in beige. A beige ostrich would be very interesting, I believe. Best, Nicolas

Tat would make a really colorful combo

BUT not mine... Best, Nicolas

Reversos always look good with ostrich IMO. A perfect summer combo! cheers fernando

Use Ostrich straps on some Reversos when they left the factory, although it is also possible that there are just a lot of people who like Reversos on Ostrich posting pictures on the 'net : )

I thought the same thing. A brown strap on the Reverso 1931 would make it more casual and sporty. I have also ordered a custom brown strap for my TT 1931 and it should be ready in a couple more weeks. Gives it a very different and casual look but doesnt t... 

You'll have to post some pictures once you have it.

that works for me too... I had mine custom made as well, only with shell cordovan on the inside for softness. Regards, Richard. ...  

ostrich never looked so good!

Ostrich looks great on my beloved Hometime: It also looked great on my World Geo (sold with much regret after the fact): ...  

PM sent re: the maker. Thanks.

PM sent.

Can you guys enlighten me, where do you get these straps made?

If you let them know what you want they can often accommodate your request.

If you like Ostrich, try - i have ordered from them a few times - they post overseas.. They do some extraordinary leathers - all bespoke and not too outrageously priced.. although some of the more exotic skins are quite pricey! Enjoy.

Thanks, I will try JLC in CA first!
