Let’s see your Vintage on Leather
Let’s see your vintage Rolex on a leather strap. I’ve got the jubilee but think vintage Rolex are quite versatile on leather unlike their modern variants.

Here’s another with a tan calf leather. Amazing how the Leather color and texture adapts on the same model.

Great strap on that Daytona NotRyan! Here's a cheap-ass strap I got on EBAY.

Here's my 6263 on a rare Rolex ref. 380077 leather strap that I bought at the RSC in NYC before Rolex got so super anal about selling "loose" parts. (This 19mm leather strap with slightly curved ends was an option on the old Daytonas back in the day.)

A 6534 I recently added to the collection and like the casualness of the leather band that came with it....

Sorry, I already posted those pictures in august 2018.

But I'm not sure I could have done far better.
