Love Napoli btw, just convenient stereotyping : ) The Limoncello is 300M water resistant. In terms of elegance the FM punches way way above it's weight ... Do you have a similar pairs yourselves??

Hmm...

Napoli would be a wonderful place to wear these watches. Especially since the Italians in the Napoli area appreciate wearing colorful clothing. So more colorful watches would probably be well received.

I come from the North my friend, but as you might have noticed, I can also be VERY appreciative when it comes to yellow clothing and accessoriesโ€ฆ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ˜

On the way back from my AD after picking up a yellow strap for the 5088๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ’› Firenze (before another AD visit a few years ago) And of course, Iโ€™m not the only one in the family who appreciates yellow clothesโ€ฆ๐Ÿ˜Ž PS: On a serious note though, to always pick honesty over political correctness, unfortunately Iโ€™d NEVER wear this โ€œyellowโ€ watch in Napoli (or in many other cities these days! ;-) Cheers.

What a celebration of yellow! Amazing watch and fantastic pairings!

I would say though - I completely understand the anger of Mr Larger Teddy Bear! This regular bottle of scotch is only appropriate for his much smaller cousin! He needs at least half a case! And make it 18 please!

Many thanks, one of my favorite Rare Handcraft Pateks, that I love much more on this strap as opposed to its original black option! ;-) PS: I think you're right about the bigger bear, so I bought him a few more bottles like you suggested.... ;-)))

Yes, it really pops on the yellow strap. And brings playfulness to an otherwise pretty serious art piece.

Love the last photo! Mob boss and whiskey smuggler Teddy yellow pants, aka "Teddy the Macallan" is finally content ! ))))))
