That being said,your 5088 with the yellow strap will make absolutely "bella figura" !!

In particular, the green strap really stands-out from what is seen the vast majority of the time! The other ones are just as effective overall . Thanks for the lovely pictures, Filip
Nice changes!

I get what you say about the “conservative” OEM. I want to change out the glossy black alligator on my 5196P and started an email dialogue with Henri Stern in NYC. These choices can’t be done remotely so when I’m next in New York I will do comparisons. PP...
