Which pieces better with leather strap?

Hi all,

I tried searching but haven't found much direct information on this. Hope you won't mind me posting a new thread asking this.

I have been thinking through what to do on a dressier piece with leather strap. Been looking at JLCs and a few others. However, I have seen a few posts about current and older Rolex pieces that could work very well with leather straps making them dressier pieces. I have also seen some Tudor pictures as well.

If you have experience with this, please share your experiences and thoughts as to which rolex pieces could work well with leather straps and pictures are always helpful as well!

Thanks in advance for any help!

Thanks for your response!

Any other suggestions for a lower profile piece? I have seen older datejust 1600 examples with leather straps. I was looking for more information as to other models that could work well with leather straps.

Rolex really doesn't do low profile. The issue with older pieces is (with respect to thickness) is the plastic crystal. Thick and sits way above the bezel.
