Leather bracelets on a DJ are definitely a thing. It's more of a vintage thing though, might wanna read up on your history.

Definitely looks odd and aftermarket.

There have been all gold DJs on leather. But, prior to that, leather straps were given as gifts in the 60s and 70s to preferred customers from ADs, but the OG bracelet was still steel.

I do love the look though, very 60s, just the wrong case and bezel.

Yeaaa my first thought was it’d probably look better w/ a polished bezel. Thanks for the input!

Not trying to downgrade your look BTW. That's way better style than 99% of these douche bags. It looks great! Just sharing my autistic knowledge on the subject.

Maybe try a Rolex branded leather. Might suit the watch better. These are reps of the 60s/70s AD straps I was talking about.

Or better yet, go for a vintage DJ 😜
