Black leather
Is it my imagination, but are black leather straps the new ‘must have’?
On watches, that is.... |

I believe it's in your mind. I don't see it.
 I see rubber as much more interesting.

Leather, cloth and rubber are what I wear (on my wrist) the most. Much more comfortable than metal. Also they don’t pull hair. LOL

I haven’t noticed it personally. Bracelets still seem to be the popular choice, with rubber bracelets/straps gaining in popularity.

I wouldn't say 'must haves' but I definitely think leather, in general, is becoming more popular. And for good reason.
I included a couple of leather strapped models last year, along with an oyster flex, and I am over the moon with them. |

Haven’t seen a leather trend myself. It seems nato straps are much more common and popular right now.

Depends on the watch and the purpose! Most sports (professional) watches look better on rubber. Dressier ones would look nicer on leather!
