New Clothes

 
 By: samwan : August 9th, 2018-18:18
Since I have no immediate acquisition target (apart from an embargoed piece from my favorite brand ), I decided to try new straps on pieces I don't often wear (black leather straps are boring). All of a sudden, I seem to have a handful of new watches....v...  

Two straps for the pateks are from

The distributor, they are original pp straps. The rest are custom made by Mister Chrono. They are in Paris, Hong Kong and Singapore....

Love the strap!!

I just changed the strap on my 5159 to shiny black from the original brown. I will try to remember yours for the next time, I am sure it would look great on a 5159!!!

LOL 😂 true....

I also love playing with straps. The cheapest way to a new watch 😉

They are all great with your watches.

You have quite a collection. They are all handsome watches. Cheers! Geross

amazing Samwan

Thank you for the compliment.

I will post more pictures when the new straps arrive...

Very nice.

I especially like the first pic (5496P). Well done. M4

Glad u concur....

I was shown over 40 straps and made my decision in less time than an eye brink

agree it is like getting a new watch....

I particularly like the 5905p and 5496p pairing but they all look great! thanks for sharing!

Thanks

They are original Patek straps and cost me an arm and a leg

Less than a new watch at least.... ;)

Which would be an arm and a leg and some vital organ...

The first and the last are Top [nt]

Hehe

The last one is a gift from a good friend, who happens to have the same model...

Great way to ...

expand your collection Sam ! Love the new strap combinations

Thanks Gordon

 
 By: samwan : August 10th, 2018-18:24
Let's catch up soon. Best

Big congratulations Sam! Here are my humble opinion.

 
 By: heartbreaker : August 10th, 2018-22:59
The 5496P, despite it's a marvel, isn't one of my preferred piece among the PP catalogue and this new strap I think is slightly out of place, I'm sorry. The Cabaret on that strap is highly fascinating and more desirable than ever. I definitely can't under... 

Thanks for your candid comments Elio

 
 By: samwan : August 11th, 2018-06:10
I will certainly attach significant weights to your remarks and will rethink those you do not concur. As for the 5496P - I have rarely worn it because the black strap was too dull (I should have waited for the salmon dial) but this strap has liven up the ... 

Congratulations, uber cool combos!

 
 By: 1WatchMan : August 11th, 2018-00:22
Some of them I would have never tried, but must reckon that all work in a certain way. Great taste my friend, enjoy them all in the best health!

Thank you for the kind words

 
 By: samwan : August 11th, 2018-06:16
I must admit that each combo varies in taste for different people but I am happy as long as they generate some talking points....

For me...

 
 By: MTR : August 11th, 2018-02:03
... 5496P with brown leather and a tribal pattern and 5905P with beige leather look really great and mesmerizing (especially the combination strap and 5496P)!!! The Richard Lange PLM (fusee chain) with red stitches doesn’t work for me. At least on the pho... 

Glad you approve the straps for the pps

 
 By: samwan : August 11th, 2018-06:13
You make a good point re the Richard Lange and I will rethink at some point....
