Help with Daytona leather strap

Thank you in advance for your help. Does anyone know all the colors of leather strap that were options or that the Daytona ever came on before they made it on the oysterflex? I have seen a light camel brown leather along with black and dark brown. Not sure If Rolex made any other color options for leather strap on the Daytona. Thank you!

Depends on the model. If you want to go back to the Daytona Beach models, they had neon colors like pink and green lizard skin, but those were specific to their similarly colored dials.

I was asking more for the meteorite white gold Daytona, those models came with a tan or black leather but I’ve seen navy blue and was wondering what color leather straps Rolex made when they had the Daytona’s with leather prior to the oysterflex models. Thank you

I believe the colors were White, brown, tobacco, navy and the beach models mentioned above (blue, green, pink, yellow).

The below was sent to me by an AD when I wanted to purchase a strap (didn't end of buying one as it would not fit the notch style clasp - newer style)

Wow that’s amazing and helpful info! Much appreciated, lastly does anyone know if the oysterflex straps can fit on the leather model without any modifications?

The OF straps could fit the Daytona's that came with the leather strap however the clasp that came with them won't work with the straps.

Example: 116515LN (cream and chocolate roman dials) - originally came with leather strap with a different clasp and the newer versions are on OF with the newer style clasp.

Older style clasp:



Newer style clasp (on all OF watches):

For (1)16518/9 originally delivered on leather many many straps available! An RSC watchmaker showed me the collection in the online parts ordering-tool.
In brown alone more then 10 different options, both in colour and leather (finish) type.
