That is probably not the case 😁🤷🏻♂️
Let me see if I can find pictures of my first batch of cashmere straps… but I first started the custom strap journey with leather, just like most of us I guess 🤷🏻♂️
Here the first batch of my cashmere straps from many years ago. Still all in use:
Where it all started for me - the LUC Chrono One ⏱️
My first post on WPS here was to get a view of the members on the LUC Chrono One and based on the unanimous responses the first ‘fine’ watch I finally got. Now almost ten years with me, the first year almost as a daily wearer, it’s lost little of its appe...
Origin of the passion …
Wonderful to consider the connection between this watch and the memories that you have with it. The true meaning of our passion for mechanical watches and everything that they stand for. Keep enjoying it my dear friend ! Best regards Captain

They are fun and that’s what it should be about 😊👍🏻

Glad you like the strap, adds a bit of lightness and some racing vibes 😉🏁
How things change… 😉

Beautiful! The watch and your history with it.
I have very similar feelings towards my first „real“ watch.
