I’m trying to rekindle the love affair with my Speedy Triple Calendar. Which strap would you choose?
The title says it all.… I think the love affair is over but my wife still has feelings for the old Speedy triple date. She doesn’t want me to sell it. I get it. It is beautiful. It’s also hard for me to read in anything other than perfect conditions and the bracelet is Meh compared to my Seamaster 300. I’m thinking maybe a strap refresh will rekindle the flame.
18mm lug width.

Have you considered a rally strap?
Bund (old school cool, McQueen n Newman)
or leather with deployant clasp.

I like that idea. Any brands you would recommend?

Might be a bit warm considering the temps in North America these days. It’s a good look though.

I bought this at a website called strapped for time. I think it's good quality. I opted for the deployant clasp.
The Strap Taylor makes a rally that works with an Omega deployant.
Looks like you know what you're doing when it comes to a new strap. If you're feeling uncertain, I'd say look for a more affordable strap to try out stylistically!

I have tried a few budget straps. Haven’t found anything I’m happy with. That’s why I’m asking here.
Part of the issue is the 3523.80 is an 18mm lug width. Surprisingly uncommon these days.
In my search for a quality US made strap (I’m traveling and don’t have time to deal with Customs) I ran across this site. https://www.snprstrap.com/shop/one-off-designs
The quality looks good. Anybody have first hand knowledge?
