Green Leather strap on DJ Wimbledon

Has anyone tried putting a green leather strap on a Wimbledon dial datejust? I would love to see pictures of how it looks.

There is a pic of a green rubber strap on RubberB’s site:

Not leather, but close enough to hopefully get an idea of the look.

I always prefer the bracelet unless vintage and then an aged strap works.

I didn't put a leather strap on my Datejust, but I did on my OP Green Dial.
The cases of the two watches are similar and the effect is almost the same.
What do you think about it?

I think putting a green leather strap on a Wimbledon dial Datejust could create a unique and eye catching combination.

Strap looks nice. Where did you purchase it?

I don’t often comment on questions of taste but that green leather strap looks fantastic. Maybe not with a blue sweater however!!

I like the bracelet more on DJ compared to the Leather strap, but the green leather looks amazing.
