I bought this while on holiday in Italy a few years ago, I needed to buy a 'holiday' watch and there wasn't a great deal of choice in the small town where I was staying.

As it turns out I've grown rather fond of the blue face and still use it from time to time even when not on holiday. The navy strap that came with it has now worn out and I fancy a new look by changing the strap.



The lugs are 22mm and as you can see the original strap is 2mm undersized.rolleyes

It's also quite thick.



It's only a bit of fun so bright colours that set off the blue face would be good.

Any ideas?

Maybe a bit more £ than you were thinking (£60-70) but check out www.toshi-straps.co.uk No bright colour leathers but there are a few different threads, that kind of watch would look pretty cool on a well chosen combo.

Top lurking, by the way!

I can't say enough good things about Rich & his straps, I think this one would look nice with the blue face.

I couldn't agree more that a Toshi would look great and I think they're worth every penny.

Does anything else come to mind that might be fun without costing as much, what about a brightly coloured nato?

Maybe a dark velcro of some kind?

The watch doesn't really look as though it'd suit a NATO.
