jetlau3 Posted October 8, 2013 Report Share Posted October 8, 2013 Picked up the EL/Noob 217. Interested in strap recommendations. I'm thinking about a lighter colored brown strap (either ammo or vintage style) . Sub 7 inch wrist so can't be too long. Looking to spend sub $100. What are your recommendations for best value? Could also pick something up used off the forum. Let's see some strap colors with your gold colored hand PAMs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B3nj4min3 Posted October 8, 2013 Report Share Posted October 8, 2013 Congrats on picking up the EL Fiddy, it's an amazing looking watch! I've got a 372 wearing a darker coloured strap with natural coloured stitching which works fairly well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asciwhite Posted October 8, 2013 Report Share Posted October 8, 2013 If you want a rougher look for jeans and such! I have to give my vote to K-Straps Shrapnel series.. http://k-straps.com/Shrapnel-Series.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetlau3 Posted October 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2013 The K Straps look nice but new are probably out of my budget. I'm also looking for something like a caramel color (something close to the cashmere gold or even OEM calf gold). Don's dark tan 2 or Rouille wax would be the right colors.. how are these straps? Seem very cheap so worried about quality.. do they patina/age well? Thanks for all of the posts.. will keep scouring the sales forum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetlau3 Posted October 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 Ended up going for Don's Rouille Wax... strap is very comfortable. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hugop Posted October 19, 2013 Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 (edited) Here's my EL217 wearing a strap I sourced from Tatts this summer. It is super high quality and has all the appropriate OP markings. If it is a rep, it's a darned good one! I do like the color combo for sure.
