Seamaster 300 MC + new leather

Thanks to Jared (Ponycar350) for the great watch and thanks to Greg at 922leather for the amazing strap.

Didn’t like the rusty orangish leather of the OEM strap so much in person, so gave this custom crazy horse strap a try and feel it suits this watch perfectly!

Thanks guys. Also ordered a black strap from Waccex since they fit deployants before ordering that custom strap from 922leather. Just took much longer shipping from Germany but they are pretty cheap at around $30.

Maybe I’m spoiled with the custom strap but this just doesn’t really do it for me... plus they only come in 20mm or 22mm so it looks really smushed and was a pain to put on. You can see the creases in the photo so I wouldn’t recommend a 22mm in case anyone was considering one of those straps

Just got this 21mm tropic strap which apparently is a hard size to find, so thought I’d share. It’s for the Oris divers sixty-five and comes with those quick release spring bars which is nice.

Looks awesome! How does it feel in the wrist?

Thanks and it feels great, but they are quite a bit more expensive than squishing a cheap 22mm on. Found it for $145 shipped
