I’ve accumulated a bunch of watches over the years, and I’d be keen to add a bit of colour to the collection. I was considering getting a yellow octagonal g shock or a more colourful strap.

I haven’t seen my Grand Seiko (SBGE295) on straps yet, and really like how heavy it feels on the wrist, so I’m not that keen on putting it on a strap just yet.

The leather strap in my Certina DS Podium Big Size failed recently, which made me think that maybe it could work well with a yellow strap? Perhaps rubber?

I’m not very familiar with strap brands, so thought I’d ask here - what do you think I should get? The watch is 42mm in diameter, 11.3mm thick and has a 21mm lug width.

The collection so far - accumulated over 16 years

    Very nice collection! If you want to add a bit of color, you can always buy a nato (or nylon) strap. They always have many designs. In terms of brands, there are many for nato straps from big brands: omega, longines, etc… but my favorite is BluShark straps since they have good enough quality for a good price.

    If your don’t like nato straps then a nice leather strap will go great with the Grand Seiko!

    Hope that solves your problem!
