Show us your leather on vintage .

Calling all vintage or watches with patina owners out there , Do you ever put your watch on a vintage or leather strap & if so why not post some pictures . I've just put a leather strap I already had on my 16800 matte dial & think it looks pretty good . I'm not saying I don't like the original oyster bracelet ,but it's a nice change for the warmer weather wherever you are & especially now we're getting into the warmer weather here in the uk. Here's one to start off with

I think I’ve tried over 50 strap combinations (I posted a thread about this sometime ago) and they all usually look good. The thin lugs in older cases flow really well with leather straps.
