After playing with a bunch leather and NATO straps myself I realized I like my sub best on its oyster. That said, I still think the strap looks good

Thanks for your opinions and I must say that I agree with all of you, whether you liked it or not.

I say that because I do think it looks best on the oem bracelet but seeing the Tudor diver on the factory vintage strap gave me this idea.

While not as good as a look as the bracelet, the vintage olive strap actually looks pretty good on it.

I'll go back to the bracelet in a few days but this is a good change of pace, something that made the watch look and feel completely different.

It does, but after a out two days with it I think I can say it is less versatile on strap.

I wanted to wear it tonight on a date with my wife and the olive green just didn't look right with what I was wearing. Opted for the explorer 2 instead.

Nothing wrong with that, but while I do like it, I think oyster still looks best.

I can only stomach straps like this on Subs for a day or so. Then it becomes increasingly obvious that the original bracelet is the best option.
