I think the Rolex is a little more versatile than we give it credit for. The leathers look very good!

Spot on Paul, I think the DJ and DD look great on leather. I have popped my DJ on leather years ago, just to save a bit of wear and tare on the jubilee band. I never did that with the DD but I love the look of the YG DD on leather too.

I still absolutely love Dan's GMT on that leather!!!!!!!

Hi

My first post but have been lurking for quite a while - great forum! I tried to get an original black leather strap from rolex for my explorer I but RSC wouldn't sell me a strap because explorer I was never issued by rolex with a leather strap! What size lug is it (19 or 20mm?) cos I'm thinking of bringing in my 1970s DJ to see if they'll sell me the strap (since I have seen DJ with leather straps in their catalogue) - would the strap fit both the explorer I and DJ?

Where did you get your strap? It looks nice and thin, which is what I'm after.

Many thanks for any advice.
