Hi,

I love how the bracelet is starting to show some wearing.
The 'dirt' in the gaps brings a higher visibility of the different parts

This might be blasphemy but has anyone tried wearing their Goldie on one of the offered Omega straps:

 

[kelsey]

While the gold bands lack of on the fly adjustment frustrates me no end, I really think it suits it way more then anything else can.
The old yellow gold black dial speedies look great on black bands I’m not sure this does, and the reddish bezel doesn’t really match bright red bands.
All this is just my personal opinion but it’s just not the usual strap king standard speedies are.

 

[kelsey]

Anyone tried different to the original gold band?

I was thinking the reddish leather bands on the various platinum speedies may just work as they have similar reddish bezel (note they are different lug size, but the style may work).

 

[hansmaulwurf]

Well,

I thought about trying the Goldie with a brownish leather strap... But I can try different Natos from my small collection and post pictures here if you want.

Any photos of testing option would be appreciated, however I wouldn’t push anyone to change the band to post here.
Do you have backup moonshine coloured spring bars etc?
