Not for me. Like the leather, just not the holes.

No substitute for the bracelet, but it doesn’t look too bad for an occasional change up in my eyes....

No way. Too much mass on top for a strap.

Eh, not a big fan myself...
I’ve tried leather a bunch on my 16610 and never succeeded. The modern divers don’t look good on leather imo.

Ghastly. Sorry. Hopefully, Everest will release a rubber strap soon for the SD50. That would be my choice aside from the bracelet.

At first glance, not so much, but how does it wear compared to the bracelet?

I generally like the racing strap look; not this one however.

Bad combo
Dive watches are not meant to be worn on leather straps |

A racing strap on an SD? No-go for me.
I think a vintage, scruffy looking tan strap w/o stitching would look great, though! Think more Panerai.

Part of the beauty of the SD43 is its bracelet

I like the strap, but it belongs on a chronograph. Daytona or Speedy. The SD is beautiful and looks good on a bracelet IMO.

You guys are crazy!
I also like to have a little fun. Heck, put it on a bright red strap and have fun. Then switch it back whenever you want. I love the straps from Rubber B and plan to get one for my SD43 when they make the black/red combo.

Bracelet or on a Nato
Bracelet or on a Nato, as per the 5517, and all sins will be forgiven.
