    Hi
    I have this Orient rally semi skeleton and I want some ideas what color straps to put on.
    I am thinking Blue Navy or Classic Khaki.
    Any ideas appreciated.
    Thanks 29547818_885058355014200_66335031_n.jpg 29550258_885058338347535_87595158_n.jpg

    Lot of opportunities there.
    - matte black alligator would dress it up a bit
    - Black with white stitching could work as more casual
    - Black with red stitching would pull out the lovely red accents
    - tan/brown leather could work as well

    Is there ever really one perfect strap? ;)

    I’ve started working with Aaron at Combat straps. I’m leaning to some funk from here on in.

    I’d go khaki with minimal stitch.

    I second the tan/brown, I've seen it on some other dark dialed watches usually meant for bracelets recently and it looks amazing

    I will personally go for the navy or even a nice red strap!

    Looks great, I really prefer straps that don’t taper or if they do then only 2mm is fine.
