KMII's latest post showcases a bold strap pairing, inviting readers to consider how an unexpected color combination can revitalize a timepiece. His exploration of an orange strap with a chocolate dial highlights the transformative power of personalization in watch collecting. This article delves into the specific details of his Uglich Avtomat, a brand known for its extensive customization options.

Got another strap delivery recently, with some experimentation ensuing since. Here’s an unlikely combo of chocolate dial with an orange strap. It kind of works in my eyes  πŸ˜Š

Looks like towelling or is it just the way it’s brushed?

And you can personalize practically everything. Used to be called Colibrica Design now it’s Uglich Watch I believe πŸ˜ŠπŸ‘πŸ»

My understanding of how straps are made or treated is rudimentary at best πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈπŸ€¦πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ

An Uglich Avtomat. Sergey and his team make practically everything themselves apart from the strap and movement. So you have a good level of personalization, including cases, dials, hands, case material, size, engravings on the case back… One can even select between movements. This one I acquired from another watch collecting gentleman who was not using it enough (and I had no brown dial watch). It has a Raketa automatic movement, is 39mm, all titanium. And has a lovely, old school vibe πŸ˜ŠπŸ‘πŸ»
