I live in the Midwest... no fun wearing leather on hot summer days when you are sweating.

Curious as to Your Opinions...

Your preference... bracelet or leather? My mind changes frequently. What doesn’t change is my appreciation for the simplicity of this piece! Cheers Drew ...  

Keeping mine on the bracelet for now . . .

. . . but leaning towards a strap in the not-too-distant future. Affixed with an Omega deployant, of course. There's a NATO and a rubber strap that came with the 60th, but leather is more appealing personally. Art

Bracelet summer.

Leather winter. Because I am from the Northeast US.

Very reasonable approach...

Agree with Ted Lo's approach as I am from the Midwest but like the look of the bracelet better!

But always nice to have another set of shoes! and yes the simplicity of this Railmaster has almost made me pull the trigger several times..I want one -D-

This watch was really vexing for me.

I love it, but I didn't love wearing it. So it was traded away... but since I still love it, I keep thinking about reacquiring. Here was part of the trouble: I really like it on bracelet, but hated the clasp.

Leather

I like the looks of leather, and if it is a nice leather strap, it sits like a feather on my wrist. Calf or Croc, croc for the typical croc pattern. Horse leather i never felt, Bufalo is great to go try it when my calf leather strap of my Tissot is ready ... 

The leather strap is great quality...

I barely even notice the watch is there, it’s so light. Sometimes that’s an asset. But other times I like feeling the heft of the bracelet. Nice to have options.

If it’s your only watch...bracelet, but...

If you have other bracelet watches then I think the Railmaster is nicer with a strap.

Always bracelet. Because leather alsways feels bad after a couple of hours

Wearing it.... But this watch is a winner in truly every case.... what a fantastic piece!

Both look nice

The bracelet has more shiny bits than I like personally, so while it looks good and is more practical for this watch, the leather does bring out the more vintage character as well.

my opinion exactly

Deep brown strap works well, or maybe try a cognac too

Bracelet. The leather strap that came with it sucks although the NATO is quite nice. If I wasn't lazy, I'd probably try it on a tropic or canvas strap. But I'm a bracelet guy partly because it's quite humid here..

The bracelet is one of the best out there. Miles better than my airking and exp2 although to be fair, I have not tried the glide lock. Problem with straps is I find myself usually going back to the bracelet.. and changing becomes kind of a chore. I wish t... 

Leather strap

makes this watch way better looking, imho. If the strap is more worn looking - the better. Adds to the character of this watch.. /W72

I like the bracelet better but the leather more comfortable
