Alternative Strap for Cream C8 Mk1

Post by TrevorB »

Hi All,

Can anybody make any suggestions for another strap which would suit my cream C8 MK1?

I have 2 other CW's and the straps are perfect , but on this one the CW strap feels a bit uncomfortable. Don't know why; it just doesn't feel right somehow.

All suggestions gratefully received. I'm thinking brown, of one shade or another, rather than black

Many thanks,

Trevor.

I have a Toshi strap on my C8 black hawk, very comfortable. There are a few choices of brown leather and what ever colour stitching you fancy, and Richie does a titanium buckle that should suit the finish of the C8 nicely

Thanks for that Clarky. They do look like some would suit the watch well.

Does anybody else have any other ideas for straps to consider for a cream C8 MK1?

Cheers,

Trevor.

The CW brown strap with rivets..

A Rios1931 vintage green/black (I don't think these are available any longer)..

and the CW black strap with rivets...

RIOS straps seem to be good quality... How about this one.(ignoring the gold coloured buckle, which can be substituted)..
