Testing a new strap for the 5270. What do you guys think?

Ok so I am in the middle of ordering some bespoke straps for this 5270G. Went through my strap drawer (don't ask, there are hundreds 🤣🤣) and found this blood red special tanning nubuck alligator which fits the deployant buckle as I had it customer sized f...

I think it’s very cool

Testing a new strap for the 5270. What do you guys think?

i have to kindly say it`s a no go for me..black and dark blue straps are the best colors for the silver white dial

I appreciate your feedback and tend to agree on a conservative note. I was looking to have a bit more fun for summer 😉

if its fun you want, why not try a green strap..still conservative, but it gives you the summertime mood your lookin for;-)

Green already on order but with 4 others as well so it will be fun to change up depending on the mood and attire 😜👍

I think it works.

Thanks V, I think so too. A bit of fun doesn't hurt anyone 😉👍🤣

Very sharp and very ...

Thanks Gordon. Was trying to have some fun with it. Got some good ideas in mind 😉

It fits and looks nice 👍 but to bold for boring me 😏

C'mon Fram, you can definitely pull this off 😉😜

Love the red, go for it.

Thanks me too 😉👍

I like it. Then again any strap would look great on that watch.

I'll second that. Any strap would work.

Half the fun is mixing things up for me. A conservative watch with a bold color strap brings out a cool contrast and kicks things up a notch for me in the fun factor 😀

Thanks brother, exactly how I feel as well. Tough to make it look bad in any case 😜

Love this choice -- original, visibly high quality, and not even too flashy....just perfect for summer! The white stitches are a neat extra touch with this dial ;-) Enjoy.

I knew I would get your seal of approval Fab. Right up your alley in terms of being colorful and fun 😉👍

Speaking of bright colors (and of Pateks), today I had a chance to play with this beauty for another couple hours....even though NO watch will EVER compare to Boccadasse in my eyes, they almost convinced me to pull the trigger..😇😉🥂

That handcraft is a masterpiece 🔥🔥. Tough to turn that down, don't think I could have walked away if given the chance to buy it myself 😉😜. Isn't this the one Volker just got recently 🤔

Yep, our friend Volker was allocated one recently👍Indeed, a pretty terrific piece!😉🥂

Gorgeous in every way 😍 🔥

👍👍😉

😉🙏👍😁

I think it’s very cool

Thanks and I completely agree 🙏👍

Love it!

Thanks bro. It is indeed a fun strap 👍😉

I LOVE IT Justin! You sure know how to rock red strap! Now I think I need a red distressed strap for my GO!

Thanks brother and I agree you definitely need a red strap of some kind for your GO. Red is a POWER color my friend so any bordeaux, crimson, brick, any shade will be rocking 😎👌

Yes I agree. I don’t think my local guy has anything of the sort at the moment which is frustrating. I need to call him again next week to see what can we do!

I'm sure he can order any type of leather he wants. It just takes a bit of time and patience 😉👍

BOLD! I like it! ;-)

Thanks my friend. I think it is certainly a fun and power color. Give Moochie a sweet cuddle for me 😉😜

It corresponds to the boldness that fashion leader （Mr.Agnelli for example) dares to disguise as a sword with a large and small tie.

Wow, what a compliment. I am FAR from a fashion leader as Mr Agnelli but do love his style 🔥😉

Hi, Justin. I think the bright red strap is very refreshing. The brushed grayish dial and blackened hands of your 5270G can carry this colour.

Yes Henry, definitely not formal at all but that is the way ai like it. I wear a suit MAYBE 1 or 2 times a year MAX and want to keep it that way 😜🤣

Very, very cool Justin. That strap really makes the dial a feature! I’ve changed my strap too, which I guess may have been a bit easier than yours!

You'd be surprised Ian. With the quick release spring bars (speed pins), it took me less than a minute to change straps 😉. Not bad 😜👍

Excellent, I had no idea the speed pins could be changed so quickly! Enjoy your Sunday!

Yes, the speed pins make changing straps super easy and super quick. It is really a game changer and most welcome 😉👍

Firstly...

Thanks Keks and I agree about the fit. This red strap was actually made for another watch but I wanted to try it to see how the color goes with the dial and if I could pull it off...

I like the color, but I don’t think it matches the 5270‘s character

Thanks for the feedback bro. I understand your point and have ordered a few bespoke straps for this 5270. I was playing around and wanted something to try that was fun hence the crimson red and it fit the bill 😉😁

Red is a little bold for me personally but given the neutral colour scheme of the watch almost any colour works as long as you like it!

Thanks for the feedback my friend. Much appreciated 🙏

I think every strap will work

Thanks Thomas and we'll noted ✅. The strap appears brighter than it really is due to the lighting. It is more crimson but I understand your point. A deep burgundy / bordeaux would work super well 👍😉

Perhaps

This appears crimson which would be a great choice 👍
