Currently enjoying this Aqua Terra:





And this sub



"Issue" is that they are too similar and I usually wear the Rolex 6 days out of 7. I think this is because of the steel. I want to bring new life to the AQT with a nice leather strap.

I LOVE deployants and that would be a plus. The lug width is 20mm. Hoping for recommendations for colors, brands and straps that would look good with my 39mm white and blue. I would also be okay with lightly preowned.

Cheers.

New strap I just got for $40 (crocodile)

 

Where is the strap from? Looks nice.

 

The "Old Man" always loved this Navy Blue Gator from Banda that matched the blue accents on this one

 

Here's a better scan: This one was 120x80 and 20mm at the lugs and 18mm at the buckle.

 

When I had the chronograph version of that AT, these were my favorite strap combos, the first being the mostest-favoritest.






Man, I miss this watch.

 

That first blue crock is pretty awesome!

 

Damn, I love that blue strap. Perfect match.

 

Blue croc / gator straps are killer on a watch with blued dial furniture. My first like that was a Daniel Jean Richard Bressel chronograph.



Man, I miss that watch. It was .

 

I no longer own my 2503.33 (sold to my brother when bought my 8500 white face AT, so stayed in the family), below a few pictures on brown calf and light brown genuine Omega bands:








By the way, nice taste on watches! (also own a Submariner, but mine date version)

 

Thanks for the ideas guys.

 

Omega blue Cordura



And a few other options

 

Of the all the (great) options so far, the Blue Cordura would be my choice. Not seen often and is very comfortable.

good luck in your search

 

For something different. maybe leather with minimal blue stitch to highlight the hands/markers....seen here on my blue Nomos

 

OH MY!!!! That mesh stirs up some emotions!!! Is is Omega shark mesh? Where can I get it??

 

I believe yours is the 39mm version with 20mm lug width? The mesh is the standard 20mm Omega mesh which is regularly for sale.

I was surprised how good the mesh looked considering the AT is seen as more of a dress watch

However my watch is the 42mm with 21mm lug width, that mesh came as a 22mm width which someone had already messed up and so I decided to cut a couple of row of links off to tidy it up which brought the width down to 21mm as all these Omega mesh bracelets taper to 20mm for the clasp. It did require an extra extension to bring the length back though

 

The 22mm Omega mesh with the open ends actually fits 21mm as well, just a bit tighter since the end row of links will be compressed in a bit. If you're getting a new or non-messed up mesh then please don't cut some rows of links off.
