Not the best photo's but hopefully enough to see if you think it works or not. I thought it looked quite nice to for the occasional change from the bracelet.

That is one of those watches that would look good on any strap. I prefer the bracelet, but I think it looks fine on the strap.

I don't like black straps but looks OK and red stitching picks out details on face. IMO would be better on brown but that's my choice.

She certainly wasn't impressed when I went on to wear it that way after her comment, made her feelings well known(as our women like to :lol: )

It was the red stitching I liked for the above reason, thought it gave it a little bit of a pop. Hadn't thought about trying brown TBH.

Yep, the bracelet it tough to beat, but you know how it is, we get a bit itchy for a change now and again :)

Thanks for the opnions all.
