H. Moser & Cie. Swiss Alp Watch with a Milanese Strap
Truly enjoying this watch a lot! I have decided to try a even more "smart-geeky" look so here it is with a Milanese Strap!
What do you think ?
Here from the side....not the same mesh as the smart watch one but still nice I think
I was inspired by a photo on instagram that featured the Swiss Alp Watch with a similar milanese band so I had to try...
Seems a great fit to me ! What do you think ?

thank you Luis, sometimes is good to try something else...
in stade of just thinking of new watches LOl
Isn't this the "hair pincher" kind of a strap???
TBH - Looks better with the original leather
I understand Yanir...
I am also not sure ..testing it out. The original kudu leather strap is amazing too..but this looks close to the smart watch one so I found it interesting/funny. Hair pincher errr..a bit ..working on it Christian
Agree about the A watch resemblance... But you can't get away from it with the Milenese strap as apple offers it too...
Image from Apple web site. I am afraid they (Apple, the evil kingdom) took full possession over the look.. . Well, at least the Moser does not shut down to the "black rectangular on the wrist" look... ...
lol I hope that you realize that I did add the milanese strap to look more similar to..
the apple watch and not to look less similar
I must be too classical probably...
Honestly I am really fond of the original kudu strap which I find original in the 2 meanings of the word , so as for me I am not sure I would need to try other routes. But as for the Watch itself, yes I like a lot its very original approach even if as for...
thanks Mike..I actually never
changed the original strap from a watch BUT I saw the CEO of Moser showing this combination on instagram so I had to try it ...the Grande Second Concept is an amazing watch too!!!
Even more tempting to get one...
It bring out of geeky side even more, but in a purist way, it would be my pick too! Joseph
cool Joseph..glad to hear that you like it :)
in general milanese straps are not an easy combination but I think it works in this case...of course I love the original too but will be really easy to switch back anytime Thanks again Christian
obviously it's a matter of personal taste,
But IMO it looks too big for your wrist. Even with the short lugs, it appears to extend beyond the edge of your wrist. Not a look I fancy, but to each his own.
nah not too big :) but may be in the photo it looks so..
for sure is not a small watch but is not over my wrist or well..fits perfectly for me and I wouldn't like it any smaller..very consistent with the smart watch idea. Don't forget with a smaller screen... Christian
