kevin300z Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 Anyone have any good ideas for a different strap for a dw 6263? I think its 19mm correct me if I'm wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alligoat Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 A 19mm x 16mm works well with a Rolex buckle- 19mm at the lugs and 16mm at the buckle. I bought a Breitling strap the other day, 22/20. 22mm at the lugs, 20 at the buckle. Oh, 19mm is vintage, 20mm is modern for 16520 and on. Check Timezone. I recently bought some 20mm Bros straps for $15 each from Freda. They were 20/18's, but really nice. Had the emblem of a swimmer on them on the back- good for swimming, I guess!

Virgil Hilts Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 Wow, great timing on the question. I just put a Hirsch rally (squeezed a 20mm on it, no biggie) on my 6263. Makes for a great late 60's early 70's look. I'm going to order a Rollie buckle for it soon. Have a look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest avitt Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 Like Virgil, I like the classic perforated racing straps...Either with big holes, like his, or small holes (Heuer style). They maintain the sporting heritage of the Daytona. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddy333 Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 Depending on the dial color & the amount of attention you can handle, you might try something a bit more bold (Red lizard Di-Modell with gen steel Rolex buckle) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
