What are your custom strap(s) on this watch?

In the battle of the everyday blue dial watch, would you rather pay more for the Samurai Padi or the Seiko 5 GMT blue even though cheaper (and ''lower tier'') but very pretty watch.

In the battle of the everyday blue dial watch, would you rather pay more for the Samurai Padi or the Seiko 5 GMT blue even though cheaper (and ''lower tier'') but very pretty watch.
Personally I like both, but I don't know if I should pay the extra 150$, the Samurai feels more ''premium''?
On my 17.5cm or 6.9'' wrist the GMT will look better no…

Hello
I have found 2 models with blue dial that enter my budget (max 700$)
The Seiko Padi blue Samurai aka SRPJ93 and the Laco Augsburg blue.
Yes I know it's 2 different style but both are blue and in an acceptable price.
I saw the Seiko in a shop, it's just acceptable on my 17.5cm wrist (the Turtle is too big)
As for the Laco I only saw it in videos and photos as it's very difficult to find a physical store that has it.
I like both of them but I have to choose 1.
Which one looks more…

Hello
I am planning on getting the Laco Augsburg blue but I didn't like the stock strap, I will get perhaps a black pilot one like this one Other categories by Laco Watches | Model Pilot strap 18 mm
But what are your custom straps on this watch?
And btw do you still love your Augsburg months later?

Hello
I am planning to get the Bulova lunar pilot watch but I don't know which color to pick.
I like both of them, the black is more true to the original version but the blue/white one is very sexy with the blue strap.
I am throwing a poll to see what is your taste
