Strap suggestions
Hi. I still think well aged bracelet is best on this one. But I agree with Imran if you must wear a strap. Perhaps a brown unpadded calf strap (sort of Panerai or aviator style) or a black woven kevlar look one as found on IWC pilot or JLC Polaris maybe.
Please show us what these look like if you decide to give it a try.
Best J.
1655 straight-hand on rubber
I have been playing around with my 1655. I love the watch....but have just never been a big fan of it on its original bracelet. It just seems like too much metal...a bit like the Milgauss on its bracelet. I have tried it on Nato and that doesn't really wo...

Hello Baron! Great example of an straight seconds hand...
... 1655 Explorer you got there! I have on my wrist a very similar watch right now. I got my own 1655 past week, and it has been on my wrist since I got it. Couldn´t take off my wrist in the last 8 or 9 days since then! That speaks of my enthusiasm for th...

Hmmm... is definitely different but still not there yet.
Maybe a less shiny alternative? Well I have to get one myself to know it for sure. I'll pm you my address ;-) Regards Tyler
Well, I think this rubber strap is a bit too modern for the 1655.
Try a Tropic, my friend, if you want to use a rubber strap. There are also some nice Cordovan straps, or high quality Natos, which can work very nicely. A modern Oyster Bracelet is another good choice. Especially when the watch is as nice as yours. All th...
not a lot of fans for this strap...
.....will show when in the flesh...it actually handles it better than it looks on scan. I think the nato works really well on a number of Rolex...especially the Sub in my view. But not so much the Explorers.... maybe i need to try harder. HAGWE
I am not really a fan of rubber straps on Rolex's.
I do love the watch though. Best regards, George
not for me!
That's a combo I'd never seen before! but to me doesn't really work! Although I am generally not a big bracelets fan, I think on this one it remains the natural choice! then I've seen sme nive Nato combos as well! Nice and desirable watch though (it's on ...
It looks ok with rubber IMO
The 1655 is beautiful watch and will look pretty in any combo. Enjoy
thanks Michael...
...despite all the scepticism here...i actually like it on this rubber
