As I plot my launch into ling-land, I am looking at the strap or bracelet options for the 806. It's obviously a matter of personal taste, but I would be interested to see some photos (and source of the strap would be useful) of what others have found suits the watch well. I am looking for options other than the original black lizard style. Thank- you! |

If you can't find anything that's close to a traditional design and you want something reasonably priced, you could try a strap from Di Modell. I am not indorsing them specifically, but I do have one or two of their leather straps that look great on an 806/809. They are reasonably priced too. |
