To me, a watch isn't complete until you find that perfect strap for it. I rarely ever keep a watch on the strap it came on, because it is often not the best match or the quality of the strap isn't the best. I also don't like that "stock look" and like to add character to my watches.
Another issue I have is with a bigger wrist, alot of times the stock strap is shorter than I would like. I hate when the excess strap bearly reaches pass the keepers.
That being said, I've bought few custom straps from etsy and other places, and I must say I often prefer the feel and softness of those straps more than the original. Another place is amazon, where you can get a bunch of inexpensive straps that will give that boring watch an upgrade.
StrapCode and StrapsCo. also, etc...
That being said, please share you best strap combos...
Happy saturday crunchers...

2015 SM300 on Zuludiver Sailcloth strap. Currently on eBay looking for a deployant clasp for it 👍🏻
Agree with you that original strap usually needs to be upgraded. I love fun straps, new straps/bracelets, different approach to straps, but i also love when it’s just basic matching, finds like this combo:
