Not ugly
That’s one of the few TT watches I really like. It looks alright on that strap. Off the bracelet it definitely dials down the two tone qualities of the watch, which I’m in favor of and like it even more. I just think there might be a better match as far as straps go. Again it does not look bad that way at all; I just think it could look better. |

I love the TT and the tobacco color strap really sets it off. I am just not a fan of NATO style straps.

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I wouldn’t have used the word ugly but you asked so... Not the best combo. A blue rubber strap looks great and yes as another posted, dive watches in general don’t look good on leather. Saddle on a Sow! ![]()

Sorry pal, can’t do it. Leather does not belong on a dive watch.

Since you asked..............................
You could rub that combination in bacon grease and a hungry dog wouldn’t lick it.

Just no. I think that the Bluesy looks good with the two tone Oyster bracelet. But not that.

Each to their own of course, but there is nothing complimentary about that combination.
I think most people with any sort of eye for 'style' would say the watch looks best on it's own metal bracelet.
