I think this Hirsch might work. If I remember there's a red version too.

I reckon a ‘Kevlar’ style strap would tie in with a futuristic superhero; so here’s the Di-Modell Monza strap.

Further to @Ree 's suggestion, Hirsch's ROBBY performance strap also works for the Japan Racing because the oranges match closely but I'm not so sure they will work with Ultraman because its orange/red appears to be quite different to JR orange. It looks like it is somewhere between Hirsch's orange and red which means neither will work well which would be a pain because Hirsch straps are great for these racing style dials.

I bought the Omega black w/red trim nato strap. Though the original strap with the centre red strip lining up with red chrono hand looks very symmetrical.

Sidenote: is it me or are the hands and markers of Ultraman LE more red than orange? I keep seeing orange mentioned, but when I think of orange, I think off the Mark II. At best the Ultraman LE is blood orange... Anyone else?

Agree, I think it's somewhere between red & orange with maybe some brown. RJ took a shot in daylight that you can see via the link.

I don't think the colour will be easy to match with a 3rd party off-the-shelf strap.

The colour looks close to Pantone’s ‘Spicy Orange’ so I think it’ll go better with straps with red accents - also, the Ultraman reboot is much darker than the original orange

I’m on waiting list, but hopefully I get one.

I’ll go something plain and complementary to the “patina” lume. I think simple straps look best with busy dials, and vice versa.

The team is patiently awaiting the arrival of Ultraman

Hopefully all six of them will be able successfully install his new bracelet in time to keep his energy reserve up. 🤔

Learnt the side affects of those marks along time ago, and it's not pretty 😉

Has to be a Heuerville. Blackout stitching or orange is the question though...
