Which strap????

Having trouble pairing this watch. Could use some feedback as to which of my strap options to use.

That’s kind of my leader personally but all three are working for me!

The Marion/blue looks perfect. My go to option would have been a leather but the textile stand out from the crowd.

Love my Imperial RoyalGuard in the tropic color too.

I've tried a ton of colors, mine seems to like blue shades, yellow, and black leather, greens, and maybe bond colorways.

Hopefully this helps? 😂

Second one is a ZuluAlpha RAF in 611 colorway. Named after one of the main routes between Nahri Saraj and Kajaki districts in Helmand Province, Afghanistan. Goes right through Sangin, or did.

One side of the road is green zone, the other side brown zone.

Wow, that’s really unique! Thanks!

So FYI, ZA stuff is pricey, and the shipping to the US is spicy, if ordering new, it's worth it to add enough to meet the free shipping.

Yeah I’ve admired their stuff before but I have a really difficult time with Zulu straps. Still tempting because that color is perfect. i tried olive green with this watch but the yellow indices are such a specific shade that it’s hard to match and you did it perfectly!

Oddly enough, the OG variant uses a friction, rifle sling style buckle.

Not only is it infinitely adjustable along its length, but it's easier to don/doff.

The OG variant could also be cut down if side bulk is an issue.

All his stuff is single pass, so it does sit in the statl, so higher, but not nearly as high as a traditional Zulu/NATO style.

Thanks! I didn’t catch the single pass part so that’s helpful!

Tough choice between the red and the yellow 🤔

Thanks! I like all three for different reasons, tho I wish the harlequin strap had yellow or tan stitching!
