Again, very much appreciate the tip.
Yes this one is very comfortable and the watch sits well. Threading it through the springbars already causes parts of it to wear off as it scrapes the side ie. some discoloration but still looks alright. Any thicker , there would be a problem I think. If you need any , let me know.

A new look!
What do you think? Leather Nato w yellow stitching My first time wearing a Nato - feels great! A special dial that plays with the light. A mirror shot. Thanks for looking and pls. let's have your comments. Do you prefer this to the regular TT bracelet? Be...
Quite charming...
the vintage feel of the leather matches the rootbeer look of the watch. it's great that you were able to include the last wristshot which gives it perspective. i based my comments on that last shot i wonder if it would work on a regular strap but with tha...
Thanks for your response Echi
It wears & looks totally different from the bracelet and I'm quite pleased to have given it a go. I may try a normal strap in a similiar leather next. F
My favorite picture ...
is the last one and it looks very "Italian" Should be cool with shorts, T-shirt ... enjoing the sunset ... Oliver
Exactly the way I will be sporting...
this baby Oliver! Something casual & chic for the summer. I didn't intend to take the last pic. but I guess it came out OK. Thanks for the feedback my friend fernando
Love it!
I feel young after looking at your combo. Will definitely try it on my sub. Thanks for the inspiration. Best Tyler
Glad you like it Tyler.
Do try it - it'll definitely make you feel younger! cheers fernando
Bravo!
I would take the same leather Nato, exactly the same, but in a lighter color, to closer match with the dial. But that is the idea, for sure. Bravo! Nicolas.
Thanks for the tip Nicolas!
I will be working on it but I'm already enjoying this new idea! This leather is so soft and comfortable. Best mate fernando
The problem is that these straps are not easy too find. But I honestly think ...
They are among the best for Vintage Rolex. Best, Nicolas.
Well...
I have found a guy who handmakes them for me in his spare time. I may try some other styles soon. He told me today that he just got some new leather which is ideal for vintage Rolex etc. I'll check it out soon. F
Be very careful with the thickness of these straps.
And ask for a thin one, it will be more comfortable, and the watch won't sit too high on the wrist. If you can get a thin Leather Nato strap, like this one, it would be your favourite, without doubt. You will have the comfort and the look. Best, Nicolas.

Well a thin dark brown and one in light brown, in 20 and 22 mm large...
That could help a lot... Let me know what is doable, my friend. Best, Nicolas.
Super doper attractive!!
Almost sexy man.....just the look I m looking for!!! Mate, great taste. It's not just horology, but also fashionista man. Don't mind if I go for same look. Best, Horo
Fernando, I dig it!
But I agree with Nico about going with a slightly lighter shade. Are there many colour options?
The strap in the pics is new.
Hopefully with time it will fade a little. Not much colour options on the leather as finding the right type is not easy. The stitching colour however, can be specified. Thanks for the compliment Davo
It works very well for me...
Specially the raw edge of the strap, without the colour touch up,, gives it the brilliant vintage look suitable to your watch. IMO it can only get better with use, the edge will loose it's bright white tone
Thanks Edward
Once it loses its newness, it should look even better like you said. I'm looking forward to that
