Sometimes a new strap is like having a new watch
Hello HR F1 : )
I like the strap choices that you've shared in various posts.
I have the Tides of Time edition, it is my first Jaeger. It's good to find a fellow fan.
I wear mine mostly on the mixed leather fabric band with deployant, and sometimes on the chunky black rubber with buckle.
However, I would like to humbly share my photo of it on my vintage mesh band option. It brings out another side to the watch. It has an interesting look with it on.
I have recently discovered mesh bracelets and am having fun with them in polished (pictured below, my first mesh strap, but somewhat lacking in thickness for the dimensions of the watch), satin finished (my latest, thicker, and thus better fills the lug space on the Extreme W) and PVD (struggling to find a fixed home). Perhaps I can share pictures of it on the thicker mesh when the lighting is better : )
Sometimes a new strap is like having a new watch... All the best and thanks for sharing your pictures!
New strap for my Extreme W-Alarm
I recently picked up the JLC rubber dive strap and buckle from Sarah at the Beverly Hills Jaeger-LeCoultre Boutique: This is a nice rubber strap: It's really comfortable, especially with the recent hot weather here as I don't enjoy wearing the croc and le...
Perfect for the beach and for the hot summer days. I agree on the comfort
Of this strap. I could test it on a MC Diving GMT, and found the combo very pleasing. Thanks for the idea! Best, Nicolas.
Thanks for the comment, Nicolas!
The rubber dive strap should look right at home on your MC Diving GMT, for sure.
Brilliant photos
...including your avatar! I have always admired the EWA. The splashes of red combined with the SS case the black rubber strap (in your case straps) just work so well. The new diving rubber strap looks great on the EWA and I bet it is comfortable. Argghhh!...
Thanks so much for the comments!
Once this hot spell of weather ends, I'll probably go back to the other EWA strap options, but the dive strap will probably see some use on my Navy SEALs Automatic as well, although the articulated rubber is tough to beat.
The articulated rubber bracelet is awesome.
I want another Compressor just to get the bracelet. LOL.
The articulated rubber bracelet IS awesome
I'm tempted to get the NS Alarm or the Diving Chrono to get the articulated rubber : )

You're absolutely right!
The way a different strap or bracelet can bring new "life" into a watch is exactly why I love swapping straps on my watches. The only watch in my collection that I feel very little urge to swap straps on is my Navy SEALs Automatic as the articulated rubbe...
