I like the denim blue with the union jack @10:17; it looks so cool on that watch. It's a little sporty and fashionable; but not in a juvenile way. Like you say, it's not too flashy; just the right amount of flash.
I like that canvas rubber hybrid, going to have to try that out. I seem to gravitate to Colareb and Fluco for fine leather, Hadley Roma for cordura/canvas, Barton/Ritchie for rubber and Lone Star Treasures on eBay for real exotic leather like alligator, ostrich, beaver, lizard, python, etc. The Lone Stars are hand made in Texas and pretty affordable at between $40-$70 but the buckles are usually the giant Panerai style which I’m not fond of. I have a box full of spares though (Etsy is awesome for that) so no biggie. Also if you contact the owner Bob he’ll make you anything you want and has all kinds of hides he doesn’t list. Want a custom fit shark skin belt and matching watch band, no problem lol! Not affiliated just have bought a lot of straps from him. He actually called me out of the blue one day just to say thanks and give me his personal cell in case I was ever looking for something specific or special. Good guy.
Swiss watch company Velcro straps are the most comfortable by a mile (I have well over 100 watch straps). Two issues, first they are almost always out of stock, and second, they are 22mm wide. Thanks for sharing your finds.
