...well kind of. I found a guy to make me a custom canvas strap for my black Monster - Patrick at Clover straps. $60 all in and about a week turn around - not too bad at all. 100% canvas too, so it's washable.  I'll post more pics when it comes in next week.

Looks good!
Was the black buckle your choice, or that’s how it comes?

Looking forward to seeing those pics. I still haven’t found “the” strap for my black monster. I’ve been thinking about a black engineer from Strapcode.

I like how the orange rubber strap brings out the orange second hand but it’s dulled with time.  Since the canvas is washable I’m hoping it stays vibrant.

Misunderstood you, you’re referring to the dial while I’m referring to the case. I was thinking dark blue or black with blue stitching might work..

Yeah, black canvas with blue stitching would look awesome on that watch!

Another good option at a great price are Barton bands elite silicone straps. Most comfortable rubber strap I’ve ever had, and it’s under 30 bucks. And, it comes with two lengths for the six a clock in the package, and it has quick release. I like them so much I have about 7!        I have a few in 22 for the Apple Watch and the Samurai, and a few in 20 for the monsters. It’s also pre-curved near the lugs for better comfort, and if tapers in thickness towards the clasp.
