I've only had mine for a few weeks, but I wear it on the bracelet. I briefly tried a nice leather strap, and it was ok too. But the bracelet is very nice.

I can't decide which I prefer - the fabric strap or the bracelet, so I tend to switch back and forth every few months. The lack of a fine quick adjust of the bracelet can be an issue, but I also find that the position of the holes on the fabric strap makes it difficult to get the ideal fit.

If Tudor ditched the faux rivets I'd say bracelet all day, but I'm not a big fan of the rivets so the fabric strap gets my vote! I haven't had the pleasure of wearing a Tudor outside of the AD so my judgment is limited, but those Tudor fabric straps are a work of art!

Totally! It depends on my mood haha. I like to alternate between the bracelet and strap as well.

Agreed. Me personally, the rivets didn't bother me as much. I got used to it after a while and barely notice it whenever I would wear the bracelet.

  • Hi Tempus, I found with my bb58 that using a similar fabric strap not made by Tudor, where the pins are not fixed, allows you to adjust the strap for a perfect fit, and position the buckle where you like, as the strap length is still adjustable. My BB came on the bracelet so was looking for the fabric strap, but cheaper versions online drew me in during my research. Thankfully the BB is a strap monster!
