Blue Seamaster Heritage 300 strap colors….

I’m considering buying the Seamaster Heritage 300... with blue face, on steel.

I want a leather strap option too, and I don’t particularly like the light brown option they ship as the default leather with the blue.

Light brown leather:

Has anyone explored darker browns, or even black leathers, with the blue face? Do they clash?

I think something like a Novannapa Brown calf would look good on the blue heritage. Or something really close to this (below)? There are a lot of good strapmakers out there, some of whom are active on this site that should be able to make you something that you want.

I think a true black strap would make the already dark bezel look much too dark and would darken the dial considerably in appearance, maybe a blue alligator strap? Otherwise, I would stick to a mid-toned brown but I do agree that the brown that comes with this watch is too light, but I don't think I'd want to go much darker.

That light brown leather strap will darken with use. It feels like it is vegetable tanned or double tanned. So it should develop a nice patina and become golden brown.

RubberB has great options for this model. You might want to check them out.
