Been MIA for a week or so due to family and personal matters but all is right again in the world 🌎😜🤣

I received a couple new straps and had to try one on as spring / summer is almost upon us.

What do you good people think of this new one. It is a bit polarizing due to the contrast but I dig it 😎

Option 1: Khaki grey nubuck alligator with white stitching for autumn / winter

Crimson red nubuck alligator for spring / summer

Option 2: Khaki grey nubuck alligator ALL the time

Key Points from the Discussion

The crimson red nubuck alligator strap is a surprisingly perfect choice for summer, offering a vibrant contrast that many might not initially consider but ultimately find appealing.
The khaki grey nubuck alligator strap is a strong contender for an everyday or all-season option, praised for its versatility and elegant appearance.
The A. Lange & Söhne Richard Lange model is highly regarded for its exceptional proportions, specifically its 40.5mm diameter and 10.5mm thickness, alongside its classic dial elements like hands, Roman numerals, and absence of a date complication.

The straps all look great, what wouldn’t on that watch! The red is wonderful, I would never have thought of it but it is the perfect Summer strap! Today’s watch but not today’s photo. Brother to the Seiko design winner (see below). Kent

when a watch is royalty, any strap fits it imo. And this PLM is royalty imho. Thanks for sharing! Alex
