Generally agree, however I think the Skydweller challenges the notion.

A bracelet/ strap change is a great way to reinvigorate life into a classic.

I love that watch. I could have had one in excellent condition in 2018 for 9k from my AD.
Yours looks great!

I think all Rolex watches look best on their original bracelet or Oysterflex strap.

That's not to say that interchanging a Jubilee for an Oyster is not out of the question. I believe putting a $8k-$10k watch on a $12 NATO strap looks crappy.

If the rumours are true about Pepsi and the red on the bezel… is probably the reason we haven’t !!!

Have not seen a Rolex looking better on non-Rolex strap other than what it came on.

16710 looks great on both bracelet and other bands, pretty much a strap monster IMHO

I agree that they are perfect as they come from the factory.
I have tried straps on my 124060 and they last about as long as it took me to take off the bracelet, about 5 minutes.
Very nice watch you have there BTW
