I'm on board and have been working with John of Dangerous9straps on a bund for my DSSD. Don't say no until you see how they look on one of his bespoke straps.

After the melting of the polar ice caps, most of the globe is underwater. Some humans have survived, and even fewer still, notably the Mariner (Kevin Costner), have adapted to the ocean by developing gills and putting his Rolex on an indestructible leather strap...

Oh gosh golly no to #1. Have to admit it's better in person than in pics.

Ok, maybe not, yet I think so.


I respect your opinion in #2.

I don’t dislike watches on a good leather strap, but unfortunately this isn’t for me, sorry OP.

Perhaps a leather vambrace with integrated watch strap for the full retro look?

I wonder if you sent it into Rolex for a service with that on, whether they would notice?

I think a keen eyed technician might pick up on it.
