Changing straps this morning, a in between shot. Some new shoes are needed for both, but I’ve been procrastinating for about a year on getting something new. Fortunately straps are interchangeable (lug widths are the same) so it’s really a two for one deal each time.
I have a number of Jean Rousseau straps and I’ve been very happy with them, there is also a nearby boutique so I can choose the exact material. The bit the gets me is that I assume FPJ will charge FPJ prices whereas direct with JR is likely cheaper (but no curved quick release springbars).
The zodiac version keeps intriguing me. I picked up Lange, Rolex and AP pieces recently, but deep inside I know it was supposed to be the Journe watch all along. Looking forward to seeing your choice of a strap on those beauties! Thanks for sharing. All the best.
You could be surprised.
I know what FPJ charges for regular straps and I’ve got a few custom from JR. The latter were definitely much cheaper. Will ask though.
Stunning image, Jay! Journe watches look great, even without the strap!
This orange strap I wear on the CB a lot, but as I plan to travel in a few weeks and take the CB the grey/blue (I can’t recall the official name) suits better and is more versatile. The orange looks good on the Resonance too I think.
