    One watch, 6 straps, lots of pictures

    I recently added another strap to my collection that I wear with my SOH. First the original bracelet, I also got the black rubber with deployment at the same time. Then I added a thick black leather strap made of Hippo, a stingray strap and the a Hirsch Performance, blue leather lined with rubber. Finally I just added the Breitling military strap. Each gives the watch a different look and slows my watch buying urges.

    Great pictures, it's amazing how much the watch transforms with new straps...thanks for sharing.

    Didn't know Breitling had a military strap! That would also look awesome on my Chrono Avenger (may pick one up). Love that Heritage mesh though, that is the coolest IMO (but strap variety IS the spice of life!).

    Even a broken watch shows correct time once or twice a day. I ought to know, I have a few!

    The SOH was born to be on mesh, at least as 1 option anyway.

    I think the Avenger is the one this strap is primarily offered for. They do this colour and a dark green. It also can be had with a DLC buckle.
    I don't think it is officially offered on the SOH.
    I agree that the mesh rules but I like having variety.

    They all look pretty good. That blue strap works very nicely and the Breitling military is really cool. Thanks

    The Hirsch Tiger is very comfortable and great when I want a leather option in the summer when it is too sweaty to have leather next to the skin. Comes with integrated spring bars which work fine, a well made strap.
