So majority of us here condition and polish our shoes out of the box.
Do you fellow watch enthusiasts out there do the same for your new leather straps. I have various OEM calf and gator straps but tend to condition them after six months or so to keep them hydrated, and even use saphir reptan for exotic skin straps.
That being said, I just purchased another OEM Omega brown strap. It feels and looks kind of dried but don’t want to ruin the matte finish by applying Renovateur.
What do you guys do? Condition now or wait?
