I, too, have gotten away from gator straps and much prefer calf leather, smooth or lightly grained. Your combo looks terrific. Thanks for the photo. M4

The strap is very much like the ones on my Patek pilot watches 5524/5522 with blue/black dials...Jim ...  

I really like this more casual style. So great to see you. Hope all is well with you, Jim

I just received my Resonance and will review after wearing for a bit. ...  

Congratulations on picking up this special piece. I really look forward to hear an owners voice about living with this version. I like the subdials more and more each time I see them. Best Christian

I look forward to enjoying the watch and reviewing it.

Huge congratulations. This is something special in the world of watches and very dear to my heart. I look forward reading about to your impressions. Best Christian

They said their curved spring bar won't fit Journes watches and the only way they will get the spring bar is for me to order the strap through Journe boutique, which I did.

My saver might be that I kept the spring bars from an old strap I have worn out. Now where did I put those?

Journe are a lot of fun to play with because of the quick release system. I just ordered a few more last weekend.
