Day Date 40 with Leather bracelet?

[Simonja]

Hello,
A question for the forum?
We see the Day Date 36 offered with the leather band. I was interested to hear if anyone has seen a Day Date 40 with the same.
I appreciate that they are not available direct from Rolex, but is this possible to achieve with any other Rolex band. The lug size is 20mm, but it seems the Skydweller is 21mm.
I truly love the Day Date 40 but the President bracelet is just a touch too much for daily wear.
Thank you

The simple answer is YES.

You can take off the bracelet of any Rolex watch, put the spring bars back in and run a leather nato or zulu strap through. Or you can use a 2 piece leather strap - a traditional bracelet like you mention on the 36mm DD. I have leather straps in 20mm for my 40mm watches and 21mm for my 42mm explorer 2.

I'm a big fan of rubber straps and changed my 116515LN daytona from leather to rubber b 2x and I love it so much more.
