Happy F (as in François and Friday) P Journe: New shoes for the weekend.
This navy blue strap from an independent strap maker arrived just in time for the weekend.
The blue is more noticeable in bright light/day light. Indoors at night the strap appears to be black.
I think it gives my Octa a new look and matches the moonphase and PR hand.
I and my Octa Lune and new shoes say to all of you, "HAGWE".

I like it Ron.
The colour, but also that it’s a little rough in terms of texture. It’s not an easy watch to match straps with; the case and dial colours make it a little tougher I think.
