What kind of leather strap is this? I'd love to get one once I win the CHNR giveaway
I bought it 7 years ago, so I can’t find my receipt. But I’m pretty sure it’s a Da Luca French ammo pouch strap. They have a YouTube video on them that I found if you’re interested. I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you on the lotto :)

It shouldn’t work as well as the bracelet - but much to my surprise it does, might get one for my CHNR to keep the bracelet scratch free.

To counter comment others, I think the vintage strap looks better than the bracelet!

It makes it far more wearable and on many more occasions; flies under the radar and whether you're going out casual or more formal it works better imo.

Great combo, congratulations.

While I prefer the two tone bracelet, I definitely think that strap gives the watch a bit of a rugged look. I like it!

I would watch that plastic bracelet with the metal bits does not scratch the hell out of the side of your watch giving it a pebble dash/sand blasted finish
