So when I initially botched my original Monstrum Strap, I ordered a couple of replacements while anxiously awaiting a replacement part from Berg. I never got around to putting one on, but today, felt the itch since. I have a plain black rubber one, a black tire tread strap, and the one pictured below. I am unsure on this one, but am going to wear it around today to see if it grows on me. Any input? I think my main issue is that the stock strap really hugs the contour of the case better so it looks more substantial. ![]() ![]()

Is the strap a grey silicon? Not talking to me as the grey doesn't work well with the case finish imho. No offense intended.:D I have the same Monstrum and have never taken it off the stock strap. Now you've got me thinking.:dude: I think I would go with something dark to pull out the black in the dial and bezel. a Maratac looks good on these and would be tight with green stitching. Never seen one but I do know magic markers!! ![]()

I agree with changing back to the stock strap. If you are considering a bracelet look at my post, Monstrum #3. Also look at the post, Orsa Blue Monstrum changed shoes, for the Martac Look. I think the Martac looks great on the Blue, and probably would look good on any of the Black faced Monstrums. JMHO. Last edited on Wed Jun 17th, 2009 10:26 pm by ronsroom1 |

Nope. face4.gif Grey strap on your Monstrum just doesn't tick, IMHO. Black rubber would be best and maybe followed by black Divertec. Not sure how an olive Divertec/Maratac would match with your Monstrum though.

I actually think that grey would work well on a Blue Monstrum.

You know, I thought about a gray too ... trying to pick up the blasted finish on the case. You are correct tho ... the colors are too far apart to make a good 'pair'. I wear my green Monstrum on a black Hirsch Extreme. I think the stock strap is too 'sticky' for my tastes. ![]() ![]()

I like the look of that Hirsch strap, especially in the wrist shot, nice bulk to it coming out of the lugs..![]()
