After having followed this great forum for a long time, here my first post.
I wanted to share some pictures of the recently acquired Ocean Racer strap for my 'regular' Yacht Club. I am very happy with the result, this strap suits the watch really well. A true must have for all Yacht Club owners, I think!

Leon,
Wow... 3.5 years of 'lurking' on the forum. Welcome, and thanks for your first post!
Yes the strap looks perfect on your beautiful yacht club. Enjoy.

Nice one. The strap looks great. How about a wrist shot? It's a bit easier to see how it looks overall on the wrist.
Cheers,
Jarrod
One word springs to mind....
HANDSOME
Welcome and nice first post. That looks like a great combination indeed. Do you by anny chance have the reference number of the strap?
Wonderful!!! I wish something similar would follow for the Aquatimers 3719, 3767 and 3768 too! Rubber strap, gator inlay, folding clasp - all together, and a beauty!
Congrats and enjoy!

Looks very cool, I like it!
I still have the original strap on mine but if I'm going to replace it one day (cool: they're very long lasting), I consider to take this one as well.
Looks really sharp.
Leather inlay rubber strap? Looks authentic.
Leon, welcome to the forum and thanks for this great first post. It is a true must have for YC owners! I ordered mine already to change. I will post pictures in January.
Enjoy it.
Cheers Chris
Here are two wrist shots. As could be seen in earlier posts regarding the Ocean Racer, it is difficult to capture the beauty of the strap in a picture. So I had to twist my arm a bit….
The number of this strap is IWE02692 (as far as I know this is the 'regular' strap size; I think there is also an XS and an XL version available).

Great Shot Leon - looks gorgeous!
Makes me think about changing the strap on my YC!?
It is an "old" Volvo Ocean Race YC - the one with the carbon dial...
Anyone has already done the change and has a picture of this version with the new strap?
cheers
Thomas
That's some interesting strap there, looking really cool.
Hard to say welcome to the forum after such a long time :o) but still, congratulations to your beautiful watch!
Fantastic wrist shots Leon. This watch is superbe!
Brilliant post - and I have just placed my order for this beautiful strap for my "old" YC Volvo Ocean Race:-)
looking forward for your pics! :)
greetings from vienna

I am getting my 1972 yacht club in 18ct gold refurbished by IWC, has leather strap, but would love to find NOS or barely worn 18ct gold bracelet for same. Anyone out there with one for sale?
Hi Leon, welcome and thanks for sharing these pictures. Very very nice combination!
Groeten,
Bob
