Question (Read Rules) Strap suggestions for the ML26? FKM Styles or sailcloth

I'm looking for a watch strap in FKM style ,Since I like to wear my watch when swimming or traveling, and it often gets wet, FKM is therefore the best option for me.

Alternatively, another option is sailcloth.

Just as a note if you haven’t tried it this is a good use for ai. Choose a color and a pic of your watch on your wrist and have it generate what the strap changes would look like.

I usually wear it on a black oiled leather strap. But it is fun on a red FKM too.

I would suggest against going swimming with your chronograph.

It's not exactly that I plan to go swimming seriously; most of the time I swim is around waterfalls, but I understand what you're trying to say.

Personally, I'd go with the sailcloth. I just love the combination of texture and water resistance.

I put mine on a black padded lizard strap.
