I just picked up my first "real" watch, a BNIB Seamaster 300M Diver from one of the forum dealers here. I already have the bug to add more watches (something more sporty or dressy), but thought it might make sense to get a couple different straps (maybe NATO or leather). Its the blue version.

 

I have an Isofrane strap that I use occasionally on my SMP300.

my preference would be non-leather, designed for water resistant as this is a diver's watch.

 

For some reason, pretty much anything but the Seamaster Pro bracelet looks a bit weird on this watch. I have a black version (aluminium bezel, wavy dial), and have found that the only other option that suits the watch are NATOs, which I have used frequently. I haven't tried a rubber strap, though, and from the photos I've seen of the Pro with the Omega rubber strap, it's a good match too.

 

I had a similar issue. ( Sold my smp a few months ago) I did manage a good look woth Nato and with a Kevlar red stitched strap that I still use on my PO

 

I put mine on the Omega NATO strap for the summer ... I liked it a lot, and it got quite a bit of notice. I have since put it back on the original bracelet, but I think the NATO may find its way onto my SM300 MC next summer.

 

That's the same configuration they had at the boutique here in NYC. It works well

 

I put a Hirsch Performance strap--a red Robby--on my black SMPc. It works well with the red accents on the dial.

 

Took this under led light to bring out the blue

 

That's a cool looking strap! brand?

 

It's Miltat Kevlar red stitching. around $80

There are several brands around, just Google Kevlar watch straps and a few show up

 

Thanks for all of the replies. Some really good ideas. It's funny how I really like the blue dial on the traditional bracelet but the black seems to be more versatile when it comes to changing straps.

 

I'm a fan of this look as well. I remember there were issues with flaking on the strap edges (happened to me), so I don't know if this is still something to be concerned about.



I'd also recommend the double-ridged OEM rubber with butterfly deployant clasp.



Sailcloth is a nice option as well, but I don't have any pics of it anymore.

Lastly, shark skin looks great and is usually super comfortable. I have this on my SMP Non-AC and love it:

 

I think I wrote earlier on a wrong thread, gotta clean it off..

Some option: first original, then Mesh from Strapcone and a Zuludiver leather nato. Kind of like them all but usually I have the Mesh on it.

 

That mesh look really good.

 

Hope you don't mind me asking, was it from here?

My SMP chrono on a semi padded blue leather with white stitching. I think it really sets this watch off.

 

Yeap, pretty nice quality and very comfortable.
