I have a Hirsch leather strap (ostrich) with original Rolex gold buckle, but I never used it and now put it on a $30 Helvetia from the 50's
Several hundreds of dollar worth of strap and buckle on a $30 watch, the way it should be!

Maybe I'll get something else for the Helvetia and use the leather on the DD, maybe I will love wearing it again! But honestly, I bought the DD mostly because of the president bracelet, it's astonishing. So beautiful, elegant and majestic.
