Independents

The choice of colors was eccentric, but also appealing. Not what I would have chosen from the almost unlimited palette at Ochs & Junior, but compelling anyway.

But I am thinking what other choices I might have for customization before even thinking about changing dial or hands (which unlike at other brands, they are happy to help with).

The first owner got a set of straps but only one came to me:

 

but my Settemania Junior provided another choice

So I started to mix and match the straps

A year or so ago a collection of canvas overshirts from a company called KAVU fell into my hands. 

Purchased by a pal who owned a silk-screening and apparel business, he had more than 20 color variants in the same style and size (mine).



So if I carefully pick through the shirts - or even grab one at random - do they work with the watch?



It's not Silberstein-wacky, but funky in another way



I guess I have a black strap choice too, if I "borrow" the MIH strap

I'm liking the color palette more and more, and I think I am appreciating the casual look of the watch with the shirts

What do you think?
