Rolex

What do you think?

 

 

 

Thanks for looking and pls. let's have your comments.   Do you prefer this to the regular TT bracelet?

 

Best Regards,

Fernando

the vintage feel of the leather matches the rootbeer look of the watch.  it's great that you were able to include the last wristshot which gives it perspective.  i based my comments on that last shot

i wonder if it would work on a regular strap but with that same finish.

 

It wears & looks totally different from the bracelet and I'm quite pleased to have given it a go.

I may try a normal strap in a similiar leather next.

is the last one and it looks very "Italian"

Should be cool with shorts, T-shirt ... enjoing the sunset ...

this baby Oliver! Something casual & chic for the summer.

I didn't intend to take the last pic. but I guess it came out OK.

Thanks for the feedback my friend

I feel young after looking at your combo. Will definitely try it on my sub.

Thanks for the inspiration.

I would take the same leather Nato, exactly the same, but in a lighter color, to closer match with the dial.

But that is the idea, for sure.

Bravo!

Nicolas.

I will be working on it but I'm already enjoying this new idea! This leather is so soft and comfortable.

Best mate

They are among the best for Vintage Rolex.

Best,

Nicolas.

I have found a guy who handmakes them for me in his spare time.  I may try some other styles soon. He told me today that he just got some new leather which is ideal for vintage Rolex etc. I'll check it out soon.

And ask for a thin one, it will be more comfortable, and the watch won't sit too high on the wrist.

If you can get a thin Leather Nato strap, like this one, it would be your favourite, without doubt. You will have the comfort and the look.

Best,

Nicolas.

Yes this one is very comfortable and the watch sits well. Threading it through the springbars already causes parts of it to wear off as it scrapes the side ie. some discoloration but still looks alright. Any thicker , there would be a problem I think. If you need any , let me know.

Let me know what is doable, my friend.

But I agree with Nico about going with a slightly lighter shade. Are there many colour options?  

Hopefully with time it will fade a little. Not much colour options on the leather as finding the right type is not easy. The stitching colour however, can be specified. Thanks for the compliment Davo

Specially the raw edge of the strap, without the colour touch up,,
gives it the brilliant vintage look suitable to your watch.
IMO it can only get better with use, the edge will loose it's
bright white tone
