A new strap for my Overseas.
To better take advantage of the quick exchange system I ordered a new strap from Delugs located in Singapore.
The OEM strap that comes with the watch is extremely stiff and flares out from the wrist (unless you have a real big wrist). From both a comfort and aesthetic point of view I could not arrange myself with this strap.
On top,VC is offering only pretty conservative looking strap colors.
As to my knowledge,Singapore based Delugs company is the only one offering after-market straps fitted with attachments that match the specific VC quick exchange system.
They have a lot of different leather/color combinations but as I wanted something that underlines the modern/urban look of the silver dial version, I opted for a Epsom leather strap with "tinware grey" color.
The quick exchange system works as intended and I am very happy with my choice.
Here a quick wrist shot that shows how well this strap wraps around my wrist (17 cm).
Best,
Gerard

Delugs has made an incredible strap
It took a while to create the perfect fitting shape to tightly hold the strap onto the case. I've sent then an email suggesting to make a strap for the Finissimo, looking forward to having cheaper alternatives... By the way, I truly appreciate VC's choice...
Perfect match Gerald!
This taupe tone is perfect for the silver coloured dial here. I have a similar strap for my Lange and it’s such a versatile color too! Bravo
Yes,these taupe colors are very versatile.
They go well with anything silver,grey ...and blue.
Looks great.
I didn't know there was an aftermarket strap option. Going to take a look now...
Yes,please take a look.
They offer a great variety of leather/color options. And the attachment system works as good as the one on the VC OEM straps.
I went with the pin buckle and a tapering from 23 to 18.
In fact, I am not too much a fan of deployant buckles and much prefer the comfort of a simple pin buckle. This way I keep the deployant buckle reserved for the rubber strap and can swap within seconds from leather to rubber or bracelet.
Makes sense.
I keep my deployant on my rubber strap and rarely use the leather. I might see if I can order an 18 mm VC buckle vs just keep the one that comes with the strap.
Superb choice!
Both the color and the stitching really elevate the look. Thanks for sharing the news about Delugs. I wasn’t aware there are any options for the OS system on the market. I will look into their offering.
Hi Gerard! Thanks for posting; as I have just picked
Up a VC overseas and will be posting soon! I am familiar with Delugs and have made some custom Saffiano and have purchased a couple of off the shelf gators. I too have noticed that the rubber and gator flare out much wider than the bracelet so my 17cm wri...
Any kind of taupe color would fit the blue dial Overseas perfectly.
But the orange strap would be my favorite!!
Really love the Combo !
And what do you think of the white one ? It was the best choice as the orange one is no more available... but i think the color match well with the white of the indexes ...
