Let's have a thread on what a great strap for a watch is. Post your photos for either a critique on whether you have a great match or advice on what would work better.

Proposed rule: you can't reply with an opinion or advice without adding a photo of your own for feedback from others.

I'll kick it off with this vintage Glycine Airman SST, which I bought on an old bracelet that was a little too small; I recently added a Strapcode Super Engineer II, which is nice, but I feel like the 22mm width, thickness, and lack of taper may make the combo look unbalanced. What do you think? What alternative would you recommend? And remember to include a photo of your own!

 

I am in with a thread i posted a few weeks ago:

Omega Seamaster 166.065 with Sparkle Dial on 1186/215 bracelet ... Think it fits !

https://omegaforums.net/threads/ome...al-on-1186-215-bracelet-think-it-fits.105976/

So let me add the following

"... Think it fits ! ... YOU TOO !?"

 

SST needs an orange strap.

 

Wow, that is Very Orange. @Wuza72 I love that bracelet on your Seamaster, excellent fit.

Here's a bracelet I'm pleased with, on another orange watch: vintage Bulova Oceanographer Snorkel "V" paired with the new Forstner release. Tell me what you think.



And I'd still love to get feedback on my Airman / Super Engineer pairing. Feels like a bracelet with a watch on it rather than vice-versa but maybe I'm being too critical. It is a nice bracelet.

 

I too feel that the bracelet is eating the watch : too heavy and modern looking for my taste.

I recently found that cheap tropic styled silicone staprs are comfy and look quite OK: what do you think? Too much black maybe?

 

I actually think it works, quite like the chunky look. Reminds me of an integrated bracelet watch for some reason.
