As soon one who lives in florida (tampa), I would say the biggest issue with a leather strap is not how long it will last but how uncomfortable they get on a hot and humid day. I make sure to always buy my watch with a bracelet if available and switch back to them or a nato during the summer or if its some that one as a leather strap ie stowa antea i get a really nice aftermarket leather strap made (horween or vintage ammo). Also i make sure I condition the leather alot.

I live in FL I spend too much time outside for leather to be a good option. My CWL spends most of its time on a grey maratac zulu.
