Well my personal thought is that a leather, or better croc, strap is the most appropriate dress style of this watch. Just my opinion tho. I'm awaiting arrival of my SOH 46 and the first thing I will purchase for it is a black crocco strap for some black tie weddings I will be attending. |

You can't go wrong either way with this watch. Can be dressed up with mesh or sporty with the croc which can be worn with a suit or casual. It's one of my favorite Lings. |

Like Serge I'm more of the mind that most Lings look "dressier" on steel than leather - croco or calf. I suppose it's just that Breitling straps are made to be sporty, especially with the heavy contrast stitching. |

Be sure to post some pics of the SOH on black Croc!

I am kind of forced into the situation because my other three watches (Plo Prof, Graham Swordfish, Graham Chronofighter) are way off being dress watches. However, I think the SO Heritage on the mesh looks awesome when I'm wearing a shirt, etc. It's such a classy looking watch, in my opinion, with great attention to detail.

If you're wearing a croc watch strap, should you be wearing croc shoes and belt too? |

Especially on the mesh - yes. That's certainly what I'm trying to convince myself (& Mrs Swiftnick) so that I can hunt one down on the grounds that my current batch aren't "dressy" enough! Nick |

I personally try to limit myself to one, and maybe two, skin pieces at a a time. That being said I don't think a watch and belt in crocco is too much. Throw the shoes though and you are going to risk loking ridiculous. |

IMHO, a croco strap is much classier, especially with the SO

Another vote for a black croco to make it look as dressy as possible. |
