I actually quite enjoy this summery strap combination on it. Sadly it’s a morning and evening type of watch only during the current temperatures but great fun irrespective.

And while one cannot see more than a smidgeon of the movement I still like this version best πŸ˜ŠπŸ‘πŸ»

While this one is from titanium, the black one is a combination of ceramic and titanium elements πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ¦Ύ

I remember almost pulling the trigger on that model when it first came out, but eventually hesitating over thoughts at the time about possible teething problems or shortened maintenance cycles that might tag along with a brand new, super high beat movement. I'm glad to see it happily humming along on your wrist !

Glad you like the combo πŸ‘πŸ» As for hands, Chopard definitely doesn’t bend them individually and given that the crystal is flat it might make less sense πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ
