I did a bad bad thing
because I intend to wear my 14060M as a daily I have given it the strap.
I have put the bracelet back in the box for 'best' at a future date.

I love the simple dial and it looks great on that strap!

I like it. I have to ask, Do you feel the watch is safe on straps? I mean, Does it feel loose? I would hate to loose my watch fo not using the SS bracelet.

Yes Eddie, what's the strap material? It looks great I reckon.
I've seen calf leather straps that are 'woven' like that. And here's a shot of my sub, also on a strap, but this one's croc. |

I prefer it better on the bracelet as it was intended to look like..
But I do like the look of that strap.

Directioneng, I think your black strap looks pretty good and it's nice to know that you've still got the original - hibernating in pristine condition, on standby for 'best'.
This bergundy one with the Rolex clasp looks pretty cool, too.

Straps seem to be in favour at the moment, I just put a tropic (rubber) strap on my DateJust. It doesn't look too bad at all and it is a great strap as Eddie says for a day to day wearer when you are working on the job or doing some sporting pursuit.

Looks good, especially the carbon. It's revervable and saves some wear & tear on the bracelet.
