My watch is the one with the date. The other one is a pic of the net, it has no date. My strap on the date one has a more dress size type strap, the other more plain.

Which strap do you guys think suits the watch the best?

 

Is that real pebble-grained alligator?

Hard to choose between the two. I think I'm going for the more understated calf to compliment that particular style of Omega watch.

Either way, it's gotta be black.

 

I agree the calf is more understated, the watch has not been polished so that may have something to do with it does not shine so much. I got the strap in the London Omega Retail store and it's a pebble grain leather cost £75. Not sure on the type of leather, it says Omega on the strap and has some numbers on it.

 

I agree the calf is a better match. I do like gator straps, but with a much flatter finish. I don't like that patent leather look. I also prefer imitation skin vs genuine.

If you like the textured look you could bet a "buffalo" grain strap.

 

croc texture for me

 

Love the alligator...

 

I'll go against the "grain." Brown calf

 

I have a very similar one and I offer an alternative.

 

Winning ^ Nice dial!

 

I choose the first one

 

I like simplistic straps like this a lot, looks great.

 

The croc skin would really compliment this dress watch IMO. Or maybe try a brown lizard skin.

 

Heres my similar looking watch on croc skin

 

I recently started looking at Precisions, I really like this one.

 

I like them both equally. I do not think a brown strap works on this watch because of the black onyx. A burgundy strap, however, would, and that makes a statement! I got a NOS burgundy shell cordovan strap on my Elgin Type A-11, and it looks fabulous.

Burgundy sounds nice. How about Omega red?

 

Thanks! Yeah precisions are very simple and elegant. And very reasonably priced. Perfect daily beater.

 

I would not call that beauty a beater

 

Sorry perfect for daily use i mean.

 

Not for me but not awful, either.
