I recently acquired an Omega 2624 at an estate sale. It is 18k yellow gold and runs. I plan to get it serviced directly, but would like recommendations on a brown leather strap that would go well with this watch. Any input is appreciated.
Thanks

Black with black stitching for dress. Maybe 2.5-3 mm at the case with a nice taper in thickness.

Casual (although it is gold). Medium chocolate brown with same colour stitching. Same specs as above

Black or brown gator. Lots available on Ebay and relatively cheap.

Good suggestions already.
I got this chocolate pigskin from Torre and very fond of the combination.

I'd be going with a very thin dark blue lizard to match your blued seconds hand

Great suggestion. And especially the "thin" part. Not sure why, but IMHO non-chromo vintage watches look much better on non-padded straps.

Brown ostrich strap would look great
