I don't find the deployant on this watch as comfortable as a conventional strap and I am considering one of the three below until I have one purpose made. What do you think?
I vote for #1 [top photo] -- it works with any clothing/belt/shoe colour and can be seen as both dressy and casual.
1 or 3. Never ever Nr 2. I vote for Nr. 1, because i dont like white stiching. It makes the Straps looks always smaller.
Could just be the light, but it looks to me like there's enough champagne/yellow/gold in that watch to make number deux viable--attractive even.
to my junior eye, there is almost never a Speedy/strap combination that looks bad. Nonetheless I vote for 1 in this mix.
I vote "none-of-the-above" as contrasting stitching and woodpecker holes both detract from a Speedmaster.
Also instead of a normal buckle you could fit one of Hirsch's sport deployants. I use these on a few of my leather straps to prevent undue wear on the strap, big reduction in the chances of me dropping the watch while buckling up and they give a little extra length to the strap. I find these fit me better than the Omega deployant
Blue? Thats a new Information. You should recalibrate your White Balance on your Camera. ;-) Now i change from 1 to 3. Black with white Stiching is better than blue. Yes i know, i'm oldschool. ;-) You can choose every Colour, at least it must be black.
