Looking to throw a leather step on my Volcano Black Avenger with black sub dials. Need some suggestions (and photos if you got em) on what color to go with?

you can play with diff options here, if you didnt already know.

i would go with gold or brown. i owned a black dial colt chrono, had both and i thought both worked. i think a black strap would be... too black for my taste. as a wildcard option, i recall seeing grey croco strap on black dial here i think but i could be wrong. if youre not sure, i would play with cheaper aftermarket options to decide on a color, then order oem if that floats your boat. or just keep the aftermarket if that satisfies you.

i just ordered cognac(gold) croco from bj straps for my slate grey skyracer and hope to post pics and impressions once i get em. playing with straps is fun. i actually like my bracelet option the least. straps add so much more interest, to me that is.

Thanks! Would love to see some pics once you get the strap.

Any other decent aftermarket strap sites?

I would recommend a black strap for your watch. But it is up to you.
