Regulator is quite a cool feature, though it would take some time for me to get used to it :silent:

You would be surprised. I thought the same, but in reality it only took about ten minutes to get used to the slightly different layout.

Remarkable how quickly the brain can adapt. It merely needs to know what it's looking for and to be able to isolate it.

Seeing as this thread is still ticking over, reckon it's a perfect opportunity for a few further shots of mine on various straps.

Dark brown Tiber

Steveo ParaStrap

Image

CWL C8 Buffalo leather with blasted rivets and custom red stitching

Image

CWL dark brown Alligator with PVD Bader deployant

Image

Image

Darkish brown Fleiger style strap with polished rivets

Image

Finally, it's currently on a Laco Fleiger style Erbstuck strap with matt brass rivets

That's a very nice one, very easy to read. :thumbup:
I wonder how it would work with a more formal black leather strap.

Out of all those options it would be the Tibor or Laco for me.

Interesting choice.

Camel or dark brown for the Tiber?

Dark brown for me works better than the camel. It just looks too "new"

The dark brown Tibor or the dark brown CW alligator to me look superb and the best option.
