Leather Strap Ideas

Having moved into Rolex ownership with my DJ41, I’m now looking to change up my Seamaster (Blue Bond).

I’ve always thought a blue alligator strap would work, possibly the 20mm Hirsch Grand Duke.

Has anyone gone for this look and got any photos to share?

Just my opinion: if a diver's watch is gonna be on a strap, then the strap ought to be made of rubber.

Ironic really that a gator is about the most waterproof creature there is and yet its leather can’t cope
With more than light drizzle. Yet it has existed for 200 M years. What’s that all about...?
