Watches should be on leather straps. It's not always practical since they'll soak up sweat, but every watch looks better on leather.

I don't think a leather strap would appreciate being worn when I jump in my pool

I've tried a few leather straps/natos but none match the versatility and comfort of a bracelet, IMO.

2 Watches

1944 Rolex Bubbleback (pops from WWII) with correct SS bracelet.

(Like watch pictured)



~15 year-old Grabd Seiko SBGR001

(Like pictured)



I don’t ever wear either one, I always wear a FitBit.

One watch on only one of my wrists is all I wear.

Plenty for sale, just not mine.

The correct SS bracelet is almost as valuable as the timepiece.

It was the only thing I asked him for before he croaked (in ‘89).

Got a Nambu pistol from ‘40 with a snow trigger guard too.

That’s funny and ironic. Leather straps are typically looked at as dressier than bracelets.

If, when, I buy another watch it will be this.


Maybe when my son finishes college.

Picking up a Seiko skx013 soon. Was wearing the Pogue and decided to put that away for safe keeping and get a beater.

Panerai might be my next purchase. Just worried about how easy they are to fake and it that will hurt their longtime value. If so then I will look at a Hublot or something.


I have 4 Panerai. Rolex's are easier to fake, generally the movement on the back of the rolex is closed, which makes it harder to spot a fake. Buy a Panerai, you will enjoy it.
