Di-Modell Rallye

Has anyone tried this strap? If so, what opinions do you have?

I'm thinking about getting one for my Sub. I know you normally see them on chronographs, but I think the holes would look nice with the indices on the Sub.

They are great straps. I've seen them worn on many different brand watches. I recall that when I was a kid in the early '60's that the pilots at Keesler AFB in Biloxi, MS used to wear straps that looked like them. No idea of what brand they actually were. I thought that they were funny looking because of the holes. They explained that the holes made the strap cooler, even if their wrists tanned in polka dots. I've worn my 1016, 5513 and 1675 on them. They are very comfortable, but IMHO not quite as "cool," temp-wise as the SS bracelets. Still, I like them a lot. Very high quality!

Took over a year to post photos, but here they are. It's my favorite leather strap for the Sub:

Great looking strap and good quality. I had one on a Tag Carrera Chrono that I used to own.

Great looking strap. I sometimes wear one on my Speedy, but never though about putting one on my SubC.

Looks good, after trying a ton of natos and others myself I always end up back with the oyster.
