Has to be the waffle. It’s a 6105-8110 reissue. I love the Willard. Such an awesome timeless design.

The watch really comes alive , when you replace the steel strap, with any of the above , definite improvement .

THANK YOU. I have asked other watch gurus to add straps to their channel and all I hear is crickets Thank you for also adding straps that are small wrist friendly Stay Awesome

Very nice strap show. The Willard has such a classic design.

I agree, it's timeless 🙂

One of the best watch strap video out there! You gave me great ideas with my seiko turtle srp773, blue dial

Thnx Darryl!

Nice video, this was just what I was looking for to get ideas for straps for the Willard I bought yesterday. 👏😁👍 Thanks mate! 😊

To get the fully style of this watch, pair with a black rubber dive strap or Nato strap, and be holding an M16-A1.

You crack me up every time. Please keep these comments coming 😂

Excellent video, thank you! Love it on the tan leather nato and olive green canvas. This doesn't help my situation in trying to refrain from yet another watch purchase, but it's a welcome devil on the shoulder!

Excellent video, really useful. I especially like the black Zulu and the French military.

😊Thank you for this interesting and helpful video. A pleasure to watch and a big input into my strap decisions 🙏

The waffle strap is the classic for this closely followed by the Tropic. I’d like to have seen the watch with the Tropic Sport but it has a relatively narrow lug to lug to carry this strap well perhaps. Love the stripe NATO style as the colours go so well with the dial (I have this one and both Tropics for another diver) - quite a few brands on the market, my preference currently being the Phoenix branded NATO style straps as they are light weight with a tighter weave. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you, for this great video, with the various collection of choice wrist straps 👍 Au

Ik heb zojuist een cpt Willard besteld. Dit is een perfecte video. Bedankt.

After having bad experience with other seikos I picked up a Steeldive version. Beautiful watch.

I'm falling in love with the Willard. But (yeah, I know, I know) I wish the lug width was 22mm

Just found your videos. Handy for me as I own the SPB151, Sarb035 and Hamilton KFM.

@@strapchoice3001 it's a winner for sure but the Willard has that extra refinement. Saying that I had the turtle on my wrist for the last 2 months only came off to try the new Seiko 5 suits blue dial on the mesh

great vid

most extensive strap options ever seen in a video for a Willard

It´s a bit of a shame that you can't choose the option for a bracelet or rubber strap when you buy the watch. The green one comes with a strap. But the black one comes with a bracelet. Unfortunately if you want to have the black one on a trap you have to pay more than the green one. Because the bracelet makes it more expensive. And even more because you will have to buy the stap later on if want to ditch the bracelet.

Plus it looks naff on a bracelet. This is 100% a strap watch.

A lot of nice straps ,nato for me,single pass as watch is as safe as a double while using surfing or diving. Great to have a brown or a olive,sets watch off nice ,or even a zulu in blue to go with jeans etc.

I converted a heimdallr into a 6105. For the longest time I swore it was sac religion to put it on anything other than a chocolate bar strap just like Martin sheen wore. I only recently started messing with different straps. My recent daily driver is the brushed tapered Miltat mesh….

What a watch gorgeous✨ my favorite diver

You made me do it again. Thankfully this video did not force me to drop the cash on a Willard. But it did cause me to drop the cash on an SRPH17, which is the black land Tortoise. I think it looks close enough to the Willard to look similar with many of the straps you show. I have the blue and green/tan land tortoises as well and they are awesome looking watches.

@@strapchoice3001 I think the number of people buying under $500 watches is going to be greater than over. Your watches have not been super expensive though. The Willard is probably about the max I would spend on a watch and I would really have to like the watch. Even if you use an expensive watch I apply your knowledge to my similar watches. I am no KZread expert though. I am envious of people like you that have cool channels. If you do have more expensive watches, may you could reference similar cheaper watches as examples that look similar when you do the videos. Like you did the Willard, you could have mentioned that the land tortoise would be similar. Khaki field, SNK etc.

Thanks voor the input, always appreciated. You certainly have a quality when it comes to communicating. I'll keep this in mind. There are probably more people searching for the turtle then the willard and so on.

Thank you for showing the many watchband options for this watch. I agree that this watch wears them so well. I'm always looking for different looks and feels for my SPB151 and for the rest of my Seiko addictions that I have so my I ask a couple questions that I have problems dealing with? Is the waffle strap soft and comfortable on wrist or like so many rather stiff and after awhile uncomfortable to wear? Is there any problems getting the bigger spring bars through the holes in the watchband? And are the quick release pins in some of the watchbands big enough or do they "slop" around in the watchcase's drilled holes, a problem I have found on some of the Seiko's with their larger and heavier spring bars? Great video and please keep up the informative videos!

great comparison - are you going to be making more videos soon mate?

The waffle knocked it out off the park.

Probably my favourite watch, wear mine on NATO or MN, just looks wrong on a bracelet and I find rubber/silicone really uncomfortable. Prefer mine to my SM300 TBH....😱 Handy video, thank you 👍🏻👍🏻

This is just watch porn at this point. Best Willard video on yt by far

No shark mesh? Missed opportunity
