Post subject:  Looking for a strap for my Chronomat 808

For 30 years I've been wearing short sleeved shirts everywhere. This year I started a new job that has me wearing dress clothes for the first time ever, and it feels like it might finally be time to start giving my Chronomat 808 some wrist time again. Problem is that I hate the strap I have it on. It's a new Hadley-Roma padded style brown leather one. It's too short, really.

Anyone have a suggestion for a correct-looking strap in 18mm in a "long" length and where I might find it?

It's the gold filled model. Sorry no pics handy right now...

Burgundy red croc would look nice

Here are a couple of Q&D photos. It's pristine, white dial - the current style strap really looks great on it, but is just too darn short for my tastes. I'm on like the first (OK, maybe the 3rd?) hole and still have barely enough tail to go through the keeper.
