    I own a Speedmaster Moonwatch Professional. Currently, I have it on an aftermarket grey suede strap and want to change that. I am interested in placing it on either the Omega Codura Silver Snoppy strap, an all-black Omega Codura strap, or the Omega black alligator strap. With either strap, I plan to go with an Omega clasp to complete the look. However, I'm having difficulty deciding which strap option to choose that I won't regret later. I hope to receive a few suggestions from knowledgeable members of this group. Thank you in advance for your time and your responses.

    All three are excellent choices. Personally, I love Speedmasters on black alligator. Gives this tool watch a nice refinement that you can wear in both a suit and t-shirt.

    Part number for the black gator/croc is 980000245, 20/18. Clasp depends on what style you want.

    Thank you for your reply. Weather permitting, I'll head into the local OB tomorrow for a purchase.

    I have a Speedmaster that Adam Lewis in Perth customized with the Apollo 11 35th dial, straight writing back, and a Silver Snoopy strap and Omega deployant buckle. I like this strap look and functionality.

    I have another Speedmaster that I had on a dark brown Omega alligator strap but it always seemed too dressy for me so I no longer use it.

    You no longer use the strap on the second watch or you no longer use the watch at all? Which strap felt more comfortable on your wrist? Thanks for your reply.

    Definitely the silver snoopy strap, or the black codura strap. I think it will keep the sportiness of the Speedmaster! Please post photos once you decide!

    I put other straps on the watch, I still wear the watch.

    They were both similarly comfortable on the wrist.

    Personally, I’m a brown strap on speedy person. I’d vote brown calf with deployant.

    the speedy Tuesday strap is available but comes with buckle but I like it. Here’s a photo

    I made it to the local Omega Boutique this past weekend and I pulled the trigger on the Silver Snoopy strap and Omega deployant buckle. Thank you for your assistance and recommendations. 2021-03-02_12-01-38.jpg

    It looks fantastic. I am likely going to have Jean Rousseau custom make one for my FOIS as soon as I decide if I want white or black stitching.

    Do you by chance know the length of yours? Is it 110/100?

    Looks excellent OP! I think that was a great choice as well as it keeps it sporty yet strikes a smart balance.
