new sailcloth on the ceramic Bathy

Took a chance with the sailcloth from Barton watch bands. 

The blue is pretty spot on to the dial, and being a nylon material, changes colors depending on light, much like the 
sunburst blue of the Bathyscaphe dial; very cool! Nice straps, especially for the price! Hope everyone has a nice weekend! 

Cheers!

Also have several Barton’s straps. That model looks great with your watch. You should also try their rubber/silicon strap. I find them amongst the most comfortable!

Nice combo
