Another winner, Susan! Do you mean the blue suede I use on my blue snowflake Sub? If so, I found it here:

Susan,
My pleasure. It's a great strap w/ a light suede finish. Not something you want to go swimming with but the perfect strap any other time.

OK, here's my application

Funny, it all started with just one....but then, I'm sure a lot of other folks can say the same thing.

Can't beat these bands for looks, durability & comfort.

I've had this watch put away for a while, and I often wore it on a folded oyster just prior to locking it away. I'm sending the bracelet out for a little repair work, and am really enjoying playing with strap combos again.



This watch is just about 49 years old now. The thing runs within 5-7 seconds fast a day, holds a power reserve longer than my modern Rolex, and the classic sub design remains just perfect in my book. In case I had forgotten, THIS is why I loved Rolex in the first place.

The "Admiralty"

Are these....
A) still available?
B) better quality?
C) with a Rolex buckle?

Got a few so far, couple from timefactors, black and a grey, plus a bond and a TSS black. Playing with the textures and deciding what floats my boat.

Seems to get more attention as a fake now, which suits me just fine

Here's a bit of a twist on your standard nylon. The added protection of both spring bars but with a velcro clasp. Super comfortable to boot.
Color, size [hard to find many options w/ 19mm], and a nod to the space age make this a great strap for the first automatic chronograph worn in space.
