Here's what I have on order. Black hardware. These are not standard, AW mall watch fare; these are the real McCoy's: real straps used for real mechanical watches. No mall-store brand allowed: no Fossil, Shinola, Movado.
For example, the Erikca's Original were created for the French Marine Nationals for their Doxa's. Jacque Cousteau and his team wore Doxa's, and if they were around today would use their Doxa's to crack open AW's like they did pecans
. Jack's leather is about as good as it gets. Ericka's Nato style does not go under the back of the AW. Both of these brands are custom made to your size, and cost less than $100 bucks.
No one who wears real mechanical dive or pilot watches, i.e. watches actually used by real divers, pilots, etc, would be caught dead in a Hermes strap.
