I like the mesh on the SOH, but I think the leather on the Navi. To me, the leather gives it a more classic look.

Day to day I think the Navi is better on leather but I have no problem with the look on mesh, to change it up once in a while. Same goes for the SOH--nice on mesh but also great on leather on occasion.



For example, every now and then this is fun:

For me the Navi somehow clashes with the mesh bracelet.
Can't really explain why just my initial reaction.
Navi for me goes best on the Navi bracelet and on brown, burgundy or gold/honey croco strap.
I would leave it on the brown croco in the absence of a Navi bracelet.
