Watches on strap can be quite interesting because can change the look to freshen up quite easily. 👍

Type of skin is one thing, style and design is another.

Role spec for straps is 20x16 which is what i always recommend to anyone everyone who asks me about it.

Calf leather, horse leather, gloss or matte,  stitching style, padded or unpadded, thickness, softness,  etc etc....

i have been playing with straps over 20 yrs and probably have at least owned a few hundred straps in that process.

currently maybe still own easily 40-50 straps? Some of which i dont use anymore
