    I would definitely replace it ASAP. Better safe than sorry.

    You should get a few perlon or nylon straps. They suit fixed bars and can be taken off and washed when needed. You also have a colour/texture rotation as well.

    And then there's always a NATO style.

    Even from an aesthetic point of view, it must look weird wearing a watch where the strap is falling apart.

    Very much agree with @JimInOz suggestion of Perlon straps for warm/wet climates, and absolute comfort - plus they look so much cooler than a Nato... ;)

    Do we get a dial side picture :coffee:

    What size lugs I might have a few leather straps and NATO,s you can have.

    Being a youngster if your wrists are small ?

    I have several small straps that are too small for me...

    I'm assuming he meant the temperature was 90 degrees but if he has a time machine please send me a private message as I have big plans for how we can rewrite the past for a better future. I've seen just about every time travel movie ever made so I'm very confident in my approach.
