Strap ideas for 5070?
I am thinking about updating the standard strap my 5070G. I would love to hear from forum members (with pictures!) about what they've tried and what looks good.
I'm thinking a green strap or red strap, but open to ideas.
Thanks.

I currently have this strap on mine Best Gatsby P.S. and YES I can finally attach photos !! ...
Thanks Christian
The G was always the one for me. At 42mm the size is more casual then dressy…and with the darkened applied numerals against the white dial it is just so capable of dressing down for a casual look. Best Gatsby
Thank you my friend
Another shot by my very talented photographer friend: Best Gatsby ...
Thank you so much dear Mike :-)
Appreciate your kind words, and hope you’ve been well! Best Gatsby
Such an awesome watch it will look good on any strap.
Old school like your. But I will steal some ideas from your thread. ...
My dream watch...
If I could afford one then pick whatever looks good to you from ABP. They make the best straps in whatever skins you could imagine ;-)
Fully agreed 👍
That is my first choice too even if some other options are nice, that one remains my first one
For this one, matte black with contrast stitching.
Boring, you might say, but the 5070 is so great that I'd not want to take attention away from the watch itself.
I don't have pictures, or even that watch but
I think red would look good, for a while anyway. Let me rephrase that, It would always look good, you may just get tired of red fairly soon.
I don't think there are any bad choices for that beauty....
...how about one of these? ...
Almost any strap can fit with the gorgeous 5070G
I would probably go for several options with quick change spring bars, but my first choice is a beautiful classy navy blue alligator… ...
As you know my friend my horological journey has been long with many in and out movements…
…but from all the watches that I have had and let go this is probably the ONLY one that I regret… I’m still thinking of it. Maybe one day… you never know… 🤷🏻♂️
