IMHO keep your Orange leather for 'best' and get a selection of NATO / ZULU straps, with possibly a leather NATO for 'smart casual' for quick change according to use and mood.

The CW bracelet, whilst excellent for the job, being 'fitted' is not a quick change item.

Hope that helps and picutres please with the results.

It just needs the right tools and a bit of practice - try it on an old watch first if you are not sure / worried about scratching it.

I've noticed that Weston Watch Straps do an orange rubber strap which would be in keeping with the orange bezel, at less than £10 I might take a punt at that!
