Seiko Speedtimer on Straps…

What do you guys think… I always had problems matching the right straps for these watches but it think these work… also I have been obsessing on getting a white Doxa, but the watch police (my wife) gave me a citation today so no more for now… my early post beginning my watch journey aka obsession, couldn’t match the right strap for my Speedtimer panda... see below…

Yeah check out my balancing act!! Pretty impressive right 😉…

anyways so I think I might have got the right combo don’t you think? Well to me I think it works… let me know what you think or not… 🍻

Hmmm maybe a white leather rally strap too might work 🤔😁

Excellent combos!  Those are seamless fits -- I'm actually surprised at how well the white rubber matches.  Finding the perfect strap combo is such a good feeling.  😉

·

Yo, yo!  Try a green leather strap on the black watch!  When the lume glows green, it really matches spectacularly.

All solid looks!

Thank you sir!!

I was looking at getting the tan yellow dial of this watch and thought this strap would be interesting - it’s from strap code

i know it’s all by accident, these straps are meant for my incoming swatch moonwatch and I was very much surprised that the combos worked out!! So happy 😁😆

Hmmm … that might work too.. I think the rally look goes great with it…

·

Great watch/strap combos! 👍🏻😎

·

The darker one looks great!

To me, the panda on a pure white strap without any details on it looks a bit odd, although I can’t put my finger on why.

I agree as much as it works, I think if maybe if its a perforated white rally strap with with black or tan stitching … 🤔

Everything but the brown leather looks great. It’s probably a nice strap, but I can’t get behind the idea of a leather pass through strap.

I agree, the brown leather never fit right with any watch that I have actually it’s nice but doesn’t work.

Doesn’t it add a lot of bulk to the height of the watch?  I’ve always assumed a leather strap would do that.

Yes, to white rubber straps!!

Just put one on this Pagani,  I Couldn't make this strap for for 24.99 plus the deployment clasp is actually nice. Great buy!

Image

The "Police" just gave me the green light on this one. And my Seiko AD made me an offer I couldn't refuse 

Image

Dude!! It’s like we have one brain!! I was going to purchase the same watch yesterday 🤯😆… my AD texted a while back with A decent price for it, he offered me $560 for it but I’m holding back since I have purchased hmmm a few already lol

Actually, ok yung leather and Bond NATO for the white dial. Pero mas astig, pare, yung black and white contrasts using the white silicone. Shwakto rin yung gray sporty leather for the black dial. 😎

Image

In the past, I wasn't open at all to white straps. But, when I saw this guy on YT put this white FKM curved strap on his CW black dial...

Image

...sabi ko, "Pwedeng pwede pala!" 

Image

So, when I found a 19mm option, I got this for my SNXS79. 😉 😎

Image

This looks gwaping pare!! So 🔥🔥 na paso ako!! 😂

Nice combinations there. I find a black sailcloth also looks great!

Image

Nice that was my first choice but I guess I should just pull the trigger and get an artem band that’s looks sweeeeet

·

I love the black rally strap. You nailed it on that one. I like the white rubber strap, great match to the watch and worth it if you want variety between the watches. When you mentioned the white rally though in your comments, that’s where my mind was going. Nice watch pair!

Awesome pairings, Jerome! The lumed dial on the DOXA is a killer, and remember, "It is easier to beg forgiveness than to seek permission." 😜🍻

Hehehe... don't worry, I haven't kept abreast too with the latest colloquial Pinoy terms. But gwaping I do know, so I'm old too 🤣

The grey/black combo is 👨‍🍳😘

the white on white works but sort of draws my attention away from the watch face…maybe a white/light grey strap with more texture like a Nick Mankey hook strap for a similar look?

@Ichibunz Would you mind mentioning which brands/bands you chose? Great decisions, by the way, especially the white rubber.

Sure, they’re pretty inexpensive got them through strapsco.com it’s their fkm rubber straps and their rally straps. I find them decent and for the price can’t complain and their return policy is great no questions asked.
