Daytona SS with Leather strap
Any SS Daytonas on leather straps? Pictures please. I've been thinking of adding a daytona to the collection but I prefer a leather strap ( Brown> Black)

Thanks for any pics

You will need to buy an end link to make it complete

Can't I use the end link that's in place with the SS bracelt?

It does not come with an end link. Only all gold Daytonas do. You can buy them separately for 80$ or so.
Google it first

Smartyjones18 end links. Rolex gold ones will not work on any bracelet models per pic above.

Sorry for the iPhone pic.

It may be sacrilege, but I prefer the look of the SS Daytona sans end links.

This strap is shy of 20mm for some reason, said it was 20mm when I ordered it...

I like no end links with a strap!
The Daytona would look great on the perforated rallye type strap.

Jean Paul Menicucci from Tuscany makes them, but I buy mine through Bernhard at Bulang & Sons. They're both great guys, super high quality straps! By far the best I've encountered after years of wasted money on inferior products.

Here's a smattering of straps I have from them. I swap them out depending on my mood. I'm not fond of end links, prefer the retro look. That's not everyone's cup of tea. Wear it the way you like and makes you happy!

Thanks Dan! To be honest, you were the inspiration in getting me to put my watches on leather/nylon, not to mention my fondness for Tudor. Can't help but be inspired by the awesome combinations that you display.
