BP Fifty Fathoms NoRad & summerly racing strap
Make your choice for this Tribute To Polaris 1968
Here a true child of the 70ies: blue & shine all over and curves, curves..
The Stingray was the perfect strap I felt, the colors, the shiny round indices & the scales of the Stingray.. Pretty cool, I felt..
Anaconda leather - with a very unique scale pattern and feeling on the strap when you touch it

Thx for kind looking & your nice words !.. BTW: the last watch with the Stingray strap in Blue scales is a LeCoultre Memovox, Ref 3072 from the 70ies
.. Sorry for not having indicating this in the picture legend below !
Thx again & Best, hs.
Your stingray was what I always had in the back of my mind, HS111...
Finally I got one this year - a wilder yellow one but it’s probably not the last 😊
Thx for kind looking, dear K !.. And Yes, this combo LC3072/all with specific blue vs the Stingray is a rewarding match, IMHO..
The play of light on case with the round dial indices and the strap’s changing blue hues can render an amazing effect.
Thx again and HAGWE,

I have to ask re the Memovox, is that tropic strap leather or rubber?
I have been yearning, YEARNING! to get a good rubber tropic in 23MM for my Bathy...
I really hate custom strap sizes sometimes....

Love That stingray strap on your memovox
I think i will steal your idea (if you don’t mind 😉)
Damn!!! That’s some “FLAVOR”!
My kind of “bar watch,” conversation starter, if you will....
Just added this amazing JLC , came on a ugly purple ish strap so changed it to a matching blue strap but i will try to find a great Stingray strap like above. Would be a amazing combo as well imo [nt]

Yes! Stingray will rock too!
Also, this strap is so damn funky... and actually matches the dial so so well, I can get with this.
Me neither till a few weeks ago 😉
A friend offered me this watch , he got it with a trade and knew i like ,,different styled ,,watches . So thats how i got this watch . Nice fun watch . Not really my style but I couldn’t resist the offer .
Well chosen and with my pleasure !.. The watch renders a bunch of nuances of blue.. Enjoy these blue hues ! [nt]

Brown strap for the Polaris!
Dark brown strap matches always the best with the black dial!
The stingray is also a beauty!!!

Beyond calf, croc, aliigator, goat or pigskin...
Some of the more enjoyable straps I have are from less commonly used leathers
Nubuck ostrich in navy
Anaconda leather - with a very unique scale pattern and feeling on the strap when you touch it
And gold stingray, to freshen up a vintage 2481
Ahhh!!!,blue ostrich for me...
Do you have any pics of the ostrich on a watch???
Would so love to see it, 😁
