My 16803 is finally ready for all my moods and occations.
I finally finished putting together a selection of bracelets and strap to make my 16803 ready for any need. I know some don't like changing or customizing their watches but, as much as possible I kept it all Rolex.

Your leather strap is upside down.

Probably because I wear it on my right wrist. It feels better to me that way.

beat me to the punch :)
I also wear my watch on my right hand and tried placing the buckle end like you did. Did not work out for me and reverted back to the usual spot |

Looks good. Don't often see a 16803 around here. I bought mine new in 1986.

Good Lookin 16803. I've had mine for several years purchasing it used w/o any band or bracelet. Acquired the Oyster bracelet when I found the correct one at my local AD, not sure why they had one that old and used but, I didn't complain. The Jubilee I purchased last year and the leather band and gold buckle were a gift.

Thank you for the reply's. I again tried the watch with the strap reversed, still don't like how it feels. I'm guessing my bracelets are also upside down when I switch to them. To each his own I guess.
