Strap week: new shoes for the Chopard Mille Miglia 2014 Race Edition

Apr 08, 2017,10:55 AM
 

I have had two visits to the Chopard Boutique this week, both times for new straps. First was a new grey croc for the LUC Chrono One (pics here: www.watchprosite.com   ), then I got a call two days later that the new strap for my wife's Mille Miglia has arrived, too. Even though it was not on an express order it took just over two weeks - which I find exemplary for a custom made strap from a watch manufacturer smile


So here the results:







My wife decided on a red barenia calf leather strap. It makes the watch somewhat more summery and works well with the Italian colour combo on the dial. Judging by its brown brother the watch came on, it should be quite durable, too. Especially since the watch goes through thick and thin of child rearing smile

Thanks for viewing!

You are starting to make me jealous with all these strap picks, KM! Well done!

Three more on order :)

This time not from Chopard directly, as I wanted different (more exotic) materials Thanks Jed!

Thanks Michael!

Turned out pretty well

The red strap looks terrific with the MM!

Your wife made a nice choice. Perhaps she's the WIS in the family?

I guess she might be ;)

She\'s not into bird leathers, though

Only you are, my friend. [nt]

And once you see it, there is no going back

Rooster, or (poor little) hen, ripped away from her precious unhatched eggs;

bawking in vain as she was led to the slaughter-house?

After the chicks have left the roost ;)

And as the rest gets eaten, it\'s a happy hen we\'re talking about

Just perfect!!! [nt]
