Moonwatches on Alligator

Just picked up an OEM brown alligator for my Gemini IV dial Speedmaster Pro.

Not alligator, but it is leather and I think it looks great.

Nice pictures. The Speedmaster is a strap monster.

Nice racing strap. Certainly taps into the Speedmaster’s DNA

Looks great. I wear mine on the OEM alligator during the winter.

btw, just finished re-watching the spy thriller The American. George Clooney flexed his Speedmaster Pro on the alligator deployant strap throughout the movie. It was cool watching that again.

When I had mine the oem black gator was my favorite look. Hard to beat the Omega straps.

You are spot on about the Omega straps. Pricey, however, the quality is amazing. And if you order on line direct from Omega they come in a very nice Omega watch travel container with a few spring bars. .

Honestly I have a hard time between breitling and omega for the best strap. Clasp, it’s omega, but strap, I might have to give it to breitling by a hair. They’re like butter (talking alligator, not rubber).

Moonwatches on Alligator

I have a Speedmaster Pro on the alligator strap. Love it.

I know the Speedmaster is technically not a dress watch, but every time I put it on, I feel like I should wear it with a suit. It is dressy!!!
