I have a couple of the Hodinkee unlined and they are great.    Vintage look would fit with the Tradition.

Casual Strap for a Breguet Tradition?

 
 By: m2 : April 11th, 2023-22:43
Any ideas? I want something casual that can be dressed down. The alligator in black is too formal. ...  

A suede strap from Molequin would look great on it

incredible watch btw

Great watch. Might be tough to dress this one down very much.

A black low-nap suede might work. Contrasting stitching to match the Tradition's gold color would be great. If you go too casual, it just won't look right. Do you have a matte black alligator strap on the piece currently? I feel OK wearing matte black str...

Dressing down is a fun thing to do.

I agree that something leather is the way to go. Just the right color like a tan with black stitch so it's not too "fashion-watch" looking to where the strap becomes the main attraction. And I personally would not consider a Nato for this beauty.

Matte black or grey works

That's how I've been wearing mine. It's dressed down a *bit* that way but it still doesn't look what I'd call casual. I suspect this might work with a taupe suede, which would be a bit further down, but I haven't tried it that way yet. ...  

Beautiful timepiece

This won't be popular but I would definitely put that on an awesome bund strap.

Not easy but you can play with some colors or materials

This one is from Breguet themselves

Is that a black PVD piece?

 
 By: vitalsigns : April 16th, 2023-01:41

No, just the standard white gold. :)

A light brown, which would really contrast with the austere dial, could work.

Even alligator will not look formal.

I have just put a “rubberized” leather strap on mine.

 
 By: p-m-k : June 11th, 2023-15:07
After trying different colors, I always come back to black. For the sweaty summer days, I always wanted to have something else than the black alligator. I found this “rubberized” leather from Delugs which I am test driving since this morning. For now, I l...
