I think it's a sin to remove the bracelet but this does look pretty nice.

I was actually just thinking about putting my Tudor on one of these. Does anyone know if a pre-Tiger 79280 works with the Everest bands?

Beautiful. The leather on my breitling definitely doesn't last forever, maintenance is much more, but I sure do love the look. Tons of compliments on the breitling.

I also vote for the Daytona on the "racing strap."







I know the photos stink...

The bracelet is in the box, available if I change my alleged mind.

I also liked my Sub on a leather Nato; it was very comfortable.

That's one of the very few Rolex models I like with a leather strap, and I really LOVE it! While I'm almost always a steel bracelet guy, your Daytona looks even better with that strap.

Agree, it’s better without end links.
And this racing strap matching with daytona.
