finally got round to posting some photos of the 6.75 I picked up on my trip to America in September from the illustrious Georger@Govbergs! The photos are mainly of the brown croco strap, but I also have the speed bracelet as an alternate to save the leather from wearing out!

I used to feel the same exact way, but lately I have been thinking of putting mine on a strap for a while...
Just to change things up. Enjoy the watch and thanks for the pics. :D

Thanks!!

Have been thinking of getting a black croco strap as well. Do you think it would work as well as the brown does?

Has anyone posted any pictures on the rubber strap out of curiosity? Not sure from looking at the catalogue whether it would work, but as you only get a small top down view of the strap its hard to tell. The rubber strap seems plain and boring! I do like the rubber straps you get on the Graham watches for the Brawn and Silverstone watches which look like tyres - I would quite like that!

I think it would look awsome on a black croco. I have never seen one on a rubber strap before.... Interesting I wonder how it would look. I would like to see one up close. My problem is I am a little afraid of destroying the croco straps even though I have been told and read on here how well made they are. Just a little afraid to be dissapointed and spend money on something that won't last me long. I love both of my watches and wear both of them almost equally. I never thought about rubber though I am going to check into it for sure. Thanks for a great idea :D
