Black Bay Mix and Match

Hey all, I'm relatively new here and own a Burgundy Black Bay. I recently acquired a Ranger bracelet and navy fabric strap to test out. I think they are both interesting, but I really love the subtle contrast with the navy strap. See what you think!

Very nice, it encourages me to do some "strap rolling" with my Black Bay Blue.

Do you mind telling me how you got your ranger bracelet? I haven't seen any at any reasonable prices in the open market...AD pricing was like 800 USD a bit over a year ago...

Strap looks nice, but the bracelet doesn't quite look right, IMO.

There's quite a big gap there, I found the same on a leather strap I put on mine.

Looks great on the strap and perhaps the most comfortable for me. I also sometimes switch to a leather strap. I believe it was from a Ranger. Also the standard leather strap was picked up and has been worn.

Welcome!! The BBR is a very versatile creature. I wear mine on about anything. Never tried the navy nato but I like it. I have a Ranger bracelet I bought a while back that i normally wear on my BBN, it have worn it on the red. This is my favorite combo.

Picked it up on eBay... they'll also occasionally have one for sale on the forum. I actually have the one on my watch up for sale right now in the forum... trying to clear out some of my strap options to roll into another watch.
