I have at least one of each listed in the picture. They are all my favorites for the particular watch that they are attached to.Not a fan of stingray or tweed though.
What about rubber/silicone????
All of them!
Look, it's the classic first poll post from a new user out looking to score a badge.
Is there some unwritten rule that this is the first poll one must post?
Is it just the single most unoriginal, unimaginative, brainless poll question that comes to mind when people get into watches?
Someone enlighten me as to the impetus for this consistency.
I LIKE FRENCH FRIES!!!

So not badge whoring, just unoriginal?
Well, maybe that offers some hope?
Welcome and don't get ruffled by a little busting of balls.

Here take your french fries and shut up 😂
All of the above.
All offer some positives for me. No preference as it depends on the type of watch.

YUM!!!
A god leather or fabric is nice.
A Really good metal one is outstanding.
Gator, Rubber, Fabric, Bracelet
Hope not to offend, but your question should be what watch band do you prefer? A strap is a non metal band like leather or nylon. You asked about straps and then listed a metal band or bracelet as a choice.
Also nylon doesn’t mean NATO, a NATO could be leather and probably rubber though I’ve never seen it in rubber. Don’t worry the guys that posted this thing about bands last week and the week before made the same error. NATO’s are SINGLE piece straps that run through both the spring bars, designed so that if for some reason one of the spring bars break you don’t lose your watch, which would happen if it’s a two piece like the ones you have pictured.
Anyway welcome, nice Datejust.

I’ll ho with the metal. But, some watches look better on leather, fabric or rubber.
