I asked James for a couple of slightly different db10 straps and received them just before I went on holiday for a few days (it rained). I didn't want the extra stitching but I did plan to punch some extra holes to make both straps more like the perforated Corfam Heuer straps. I'm not so sure now. All my watches are on either original bracelets or rally straps, I'd shied away from plain straps but these two are so nice I'm going to leave them as is, unperforated, for a while to work out what I want to do with them. The brown one in particular looks great on the GMT:

This is a 1968 transitional Speedmaster which normally lives on its original bracelet. The only slight issue is that I only have one of the brown straps...

The black strap isn't so easy to photograph, especially in the wettest most miserable English summer in 100 years, but here's a picture of it on my Seiko Bullhead:
