What's your favourite strap for your Speedy?

I've been on a strap kick recently and have rejected everything I tried in favor of the black leather strap that came with my Co-Axial Moonwatch Chrono. I was especially disappointed with NATO straps after thinking I HAD to have one.

The NATO adds too much bulk for my taste at the outer edges of the lugs. This Speedy is 44.25mm and doesn't need any more bulk. No strap I have tried pleases me more than the original.

Brown leather always looks good.

Fantastic on a NATO too, like it was meant to be there.

Fabric or leather.

This is my current favourite - same as the Silver Snoopy strap but with grey stitching:

+1 on the grey stitching cordura strap. I picked up mine last month and it looks great on the speedy. I wanted the grey stitching so it would also match my planet ocean 8500.

My other favorite strap is the Omega Bariena strap. Hard to see in the pic below but it's the only one I could find right now.

And of course my Phoenix NATO admiralty grey strap has always been a favorite too. Sorry I couldn't find a better picture.

I'm gonna try one more NATO strap. All black nylon this time, just ordered from WatchGecko. I want the Snoopy strap and the DSotM all black nylon strap too.

Lately had some custom straps made, the 1 layer Horween leather cordovans are really growing on me:

It is a small store and a one man operation. You can also find his goods on ebay. If you want to have anything done custom, it would probably be a good idea to contact him ahead of your arrival.

Is that an Omega cordura? If not would you mind sharing where you got it?

I'm a big fan of the OEM X-33 kevlar straps (not the coriamide ones) - wore a black one on my Alaska project and thought they were well suited.
