In theory this should be a super cool combo... But I am not very happy with the outcome. The black is better but not really what I had in mind.... Oh, well..... The search for the perfect combo continues! Best Blomman...  

But I am not overly happy of the feel of the Tropical.... Best Blomman

I am not convinced by the Tropic for the Railmaster, but for the Seamaster, no issues... Best, Nicolas

Best Blomman ...  

Bring it wiht you, next time, we'll take a side by side picture. Best,Nicolas.

. . . that bring out the best in both. Apologies for the poor lighting; this image was taken yesterday at an alehouse* within walking distance of my place yesterday. And no, I had only one, so it wasn't the photographer's fault! :-) * Institution Brewery:...  

You have a perfect match, dear Art! :) Me, I am still searching.... Best Blomman

That Cordovan, dark brown, is the strap for this one. Cheers, Nilo

But I will keep searching.... Best Blomman

with mine I prefer sticking to its original metal bracelet and to a period original Swiss made rubber tropic strap with inner curved ends. 19mm if I recall properly. I understand why you are trying to experiment with fabric straps. Leather as mentioned by... 

But the bracelet was not bad, either... Even if I prefer the tropic. Best, Nicolas

From a historical perspective, yes, correct. But I don't find the bracelet nor the Tropical comfortable to wear on a daily basis. So, they will have to stay in the box while I search for something more comfortable.... Best Blomman

Yes, maybe I should try that... Best Blomman
