Saturday 7th January

this one is feeling neglected

Time to look through my straps and find a better one for this or failing that try to make a leather one

Fantastic watch and love the LED technology.

This early 1940s Air Ministry issue Omega for me today with its cal 30T2SC movement.

A red leather strap with black stitching might work or black leather with red or white stitching would be more subtle. I don't automatically think about brown leather for a black dial watch though must admit when I see it, it does work really well. That's a lovely watch and would probably suit most permutations of style / colour.

as a dive watch i have to say bracelet or rubber, although it would suit leather [  thick vintage brown ] i cant get my head around leather and water , but then its not my watch so who cares what i think

Might just have one here to suit it ... didnt realise I had so many

this is how the hoard starts: " i didnt know i had so many"

i spy a nice thick brown one needing stitching
