NICE....complements the black dial very well! I might be a bit "biased" in favor of leather because I have at least 7 that I rotate among for my 16610 (and also have NATOs)

I love mine on a leather strap

Quite sharp indeed! Well done.

visualplane · 30 June 2016, 05:23 AM

Looks great

Vinyasa · 30 June 2016, 05:29 AM

Looking great! I'm a big fan of Subs and leather straps to keep it interesting. My preference is saddle or deep brown with contrast stitching.

ref1655 · 30 June 2016, 05:45 AM

from a practical standpoint, a leather strap on a Submariner doesn't quite make sense unless the wearer never intends on going into the water.

Oyster & NATO are seemingly logical choices. leather is probably more of a fashion statement... just saying.

Nice!!!

There is utility there too. A leather strap will always be more easily adjustable over steel ... even with the glidelock system.

Perhaps, although I limit my selections to water-resistant straps.

Agree it's not the most practical on a dive watch...but I still love it!

joli160 · 30 June 2016, 09:59 AM

Not for me, I prefer the bracelet. If you like it than all is well and you made a good purchase

jrs146 · 30 June 2016, 10:07 AM

I'm a Rolex bracelet guy. I just can't find a strap/case combo that looks better than an oyster bracelet. Pics are great though!

Can't beat a sub on leather

kromdom · 30 June 2016, 10:24 AM

CHOICE....its is a VERY good thing :)

kjp1Iam · 30 June 2016, 10:40 AM

Looks Good! I still always prefer the bracelet but the right leather sometimes gives a nice look.

JohnLT · 30 June 2016, 11:16 AM

While the Oyster is the best on a Sub. Its fun to change it up.

crowncollection · 30 June 2016, 11:18 AM

looks ok but prefer a bracelet

landroverking · 30 June 2016, 11:50 AM

They look nice, but for me a dive watch if not on a bracelet need to be on rubber.

TheRolexKingofLV · 30 June 2016, 11:52 AM

Looks great

HogwldFLTR · 30 June 2016, 03:01 PM

Come summer I don't wear leather; during the winter when watches won't see water it's a different story. All look great!!!!

perryj · 30 June 2016, 10:35 PM

Leather

sutats · 30 June 2016, 11:17 PM

It's lovely but the black strap draws much attention away from the beauty of the black watch head. If your case has exposed lug holes and you're after a rustic look then try a distressed leather strap with a dark brown or tan finish.
