Which Strap suits better n why? 😊
Just bought these 2 leather straps n I just wanna hear your takes n views on them. So which one suits the watch better n why? Or both? 😊 Looking forward to hearing n learning from your opinions. Thank you fellow crunchers! 😁
*Decided to throw in a pic of the watch in its original metal bracelet for better comparison.

If I was going to mirror image my Explorer that would be the watch. Great time piece. Personally I wouldn't take it off the bracelet. Stay Thirsty My Man 🍻👊🏽

Thanks mate. I share the same feeling with you too, hence this post.
Thought I'd wanna try a new look witha straps... But I might still prefer the heft n steely comfort... Of the bracelets, thus far.
Had a pretty weird feeling when I placed the straps on TBH. I thought I was just not used to them... 😅
They are both great. To me, I’d just match the band with the rest of my gear. The watch is great neutral palate to play with.

The original is always FIRE 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I've tried with mine - brown all the way. Especially ochre. It changes the whole look when I get bored of the simplicity of all steel. The mental comfort is lower, though.
But doesn't the watch damage the straps? I have the 36mm and I can only use NATO straps (and carefully, without pulling the straps through) or thin rubber straps. Otherwise the case edge rubs on the strap and damages it.
I think the brown looks 🔥

Thanks mate. I'll keep a lookout on the fraying part n will update in this post if any. 👍😊
While I prefer bracelets both of these straps look good although I personally would go with the brown just because it brings out the dial more

Touché mate. I thought the same too, which is why I bought both straps to try. I'll try out both straps for a week n see how the contrast works. 😁
This case is made for bracelet
