I like that the buckle keeps with the client style.

I wasn't sure how it would look on tan leather but I really like it. Prefer this than the rubber b that was fitted before. Very comfortable strap too.

It is a beautiful snug fit once it's actually on there. Actually very difficult to get it on with OEM springbars. Everest provide their own but I didn't have those. Took me ages and I made sure I taped the lugs in case of mishaps. If anyone is relying on a watchsmith to put this on then I'd recommend using someone you really trust!!

Thanks. Would be nice to see a pic of yours as I was considering a darker Everest strap too. Want another leather because so comfortable.

Here you go - these straps are so darn thick (great leather!) that I'm anxious for it to break in a bit. I did the same on my older sub (took a week to break in) and couldn't wait to duplicate it on the new GMT. I really like your color choice too-they have so many cool options - a big fan, and good to see another fan too!

Thanks!! Looks awesome. Will give the dark option some serious thought. Had a rubber b on before but big fan of the leather now. A of of others on the forum too I think so we aren't the only ones!! Wear it well!!
