It is nice, but I think it cheapens the watch. I don't know maybe not.

Have a buddy that put it on an everest, seemed to like the versatility of that. IMO leather looks great on vintage Rolex but modern ones call for something a bit better

I think it’s a wood choice. The watch is still ther drawing the attention it does.

As someone who also swapped out the SS strap for a more understated option, I wholeheartedly support this choice. Makes it look ready for an adventure.

I’m in San Diego as well!

Nice! Yours looks nice on the nato too. I’ve got another custom leather strap in black on the way that I’m excited to try out soon.

That's a beautiful strap! Would you mind sharing where you got it from? Got a 39mm black OP that would look killer with one like that! Thanks!

Looks good. However, I prefer the OEM bracelet.

The Explorer is one of those references that suits a strap
