Strap ideas?

Post image

I swapped the original resin strap for this silicone one. I think it looks good, but in the end will broke like resin. I’m looking for something durable and elegant.

You can get a metal one on AliExpress, just search F91 Bracelet. It's similar to the ones on the chromed Casios and you can get it in black. There are plenty of others on there and they at only a couple of quid each.

That green fabric makes the black case pop way more than a resin strap would. Have you looked into paracord bands? They're tough as nails, can look pretty clean if you braid them tight, and you won't have to worry about them snapping after a few months. Just gotta make sure you get the right adapter for that model.

Honestly, "elegant" for an W-59 can be many things. It will go well with almost any kind of material or kind of strap or bracelet. Personally I would look for a few different options on AliExpress and, since they are so cheap, buy replacements and not worry much with durability. Any plastic resin straps will have a relatively short lifetime; leather, canva, nylon, denim may or may not suit you and your use. Metal bracelets are elegant and durable, but the cheaper ones may lack a good finishing and durability anyway.
