Well when I got it, it came on a pretty grotty strap and to be honest I very quickly lost interest in it as it looked pretty cheap and nasty.



Sorry I don't have a better 'before' picture.

Anyway, I found this strap after looking everywhere for something that would look good!






What do you think?

Still massive though!!

How did you find a strap for your kitchen wall clock?

I like that watch, it would really suit me as my large PO looks small on my wrist. I prefer the new strap, suits the watch much better than the old one.

It frankly looks ridiculous, your wrists are probably too small for a 45mm PO let alone that.

Got some decent comments here...

Bought it for a laugh - but couldn't even bring myself to laugh at it with the brown strap!

No, it's not.

But he's a massive watch fan, really knows his stuff. Noticed my Carrera when I went in with this, informed me that if Heuer was preceded by Tag then I should get it out of his shop.

+1

The watch itself would look better (but never good)with a MUCH wider strap. Should have 26mm lug spacing.
