Seems like most straps these days all have a rough out finish with contrasting thread near the lugs. Getting a bit boring eh? :) There are literally thousands of variations available, try to find the strap that looks good on your watch. Try to build a variety of straps that can be used with all your watches.

You can get a beautiful strap for 20 bucks or 300. The Buffalo leather strap on the 16030 with Roman dial was a 20 dollar strap about 15 years ago. The black Croc on the TOG was 160 a similar number of years ago. You can get many years out of leather, just avoid sweating like a pig while wearing them. :)
