Still didn’t have the chance to think of a new strap but I would go into the blue/purple colors.





Your strap is top clueless collector.

Happy Holidays,

Feeling Festive 🎄

 
 By: Clueless_Collector : December 19th, 2021-18:50
Just joined the Green Party, inspired by few members who are pioneers in the strap game. Ordered this green strap back in May and arrived yesterday…new strap makes it most economical way to feel like a new watch. Happy holidays. Just in time for Christmas...  

Merci, mon ami.

Both great, but I would go with the green.

Patek strap? Shiny bottle green?

You are a genius…spot on.

A great match! Plus, your comfort zone has just been magically expanded 😄

Like many others before me, I think both option look fantastic, but the green really brings out the best of the enamel dial. Merry Christmas to you, dear Raymond! Daniel

Merry Christmas to you too, Daniel…

Green is the symbol color of life so with all the crazy stuff going, we need this and it is brilliant of PP to kind of kick start the green trend. I’m happy to be joining at the tail end of the train, Merry Christmas and happy holidays.

Wow…that is a long lead time

 
 By: Patekfinity : December 19th, 2021-19:18
Was planning on doing the same but couldn’t wait…here is mine with strap from CF…took only 3 weeks!! Specified yellow thread and yellow waxed sides on this strap ...  

Wow….Fancy my friend. Exquisite and very detailed in your choice 👍🏻, bravo!

 
 By: Clueless_Collector : December 19th, 2021-19:28
I have all the time and can always wait, because the original config is already great to me. Cheers 🥂

Thanks!

Happy Holidays!! Unfortunately I’m a man of the here and now…so couldn’t wait. 😂

Thanks…here’s another pic

That’s a nice strap

 
 By: Weems@8 : December 19th, 2021-19:25
I am chasing after a rare Baume and Mercier. I seen Baume and Mercier deliver the watch on a black leather strap, while the dial is green. Your new green strap would be a great match with the Baume and Mercier i am chasing after. I go to call the customer... 

Catching the last 2021 green train…

 
 By: Clueless_Collector : December 19th, 2021-19:30
Good luck and wish your chase is successful soon. Strap games can be fun if not scratching the lugs 🙈

Whats happen in 2021 when it is green at my side

 
 By: Weems@8 : December 19th, 2021-19:59
Simply not my wanted models get a green dial. At 11 December i discovered a wanted watch with a green dial. It could be photoshopped, it have an own reference number that no other Baume and Mercier have. Maybe Baume and Mercier made a few to test if there... 

Not all strap makers have such easy release system, which is a shame... but I noticed more watch brands are coming out with easy strap change designs...

 
 By: Clueless_Collector : December 19th, 2021-20:12
I totally welcome such designs. This might put Burgeon tools business at risk.

What brings the watch future

 
 By: Weems@8 : December 19th, 2021-20:43
And also my collecting style. I see friends having smart release systems on their watches. For example IWC, with it smart system to change a strap bracelet etc in a blink of the eye. I belief Cartier have on it’s Santos a easy way to change strap bracelet... 

I’m so with you about the smart systems…

 
 By: Clueless_Collector : December 19th, 2021-23:44
Push pins without easy adjustments are too old school and outdated 👌🏻👊🏻🙏🏻

;-)

Very nice mine is a bit lighter

Looks like most of us here prefer green and a few got the bright blue…

 
 By: Clueless_Collector : December 19th, 2021-19:48
Yours looks lively and fun too…enjoy Mr WT king.

It looks pretty amazing with that green strap!

Thanks for the endorsement my friend!

I’m joining the 5231J green strap party.

 
 By: Pretty Boy : December 19th, 2021-22:27
Happy Holidays! Best, V. ...  

Stunning photo…green is in 💚

 
 By: Clueless_Collector : December 19th, 2021-22:50
Thanks for joining the party 🎉

Both straps look great, but my preference is the bottle green. The multi-colored dial invites many wonderful options. Here are 2 other possibilities,

 
 By: patekova : December 19th, 2021-23:17
both of which arePatek straps (don’t recall the strap descriptions). Enjoy your beautiful watch this holiday season and beyond. Best, Patekova ...  

When I ordered this, there is only one green color left and it is this shiny bottle green…

 
 By: Clueless_Collector : December 19th, 2021-23:37
I like it too, but any of the two you showcase here will work for me too. I’m an easy going person 😊. Enjoy this wonderful watch too.

team blue here ;)

Team Yellow where are u??

 
 By: Patekfinity : December 20th, 2021-00:50
I can see this with a Yellow strap as well!! 👍👍👍

😂😂😉🥂

 
 By: FabR : December 20th, 2021-03:44

Wow!!

 
 By: Patekfinity : December 20th, 2021-01:42
Love that shade!! Awesome! Can’t wait to see it on your 5088!! You need to give your AD a very visible hint!! “Guess what is missing in this picture?” type of hint…😂

That will be a killer combo

 
 By: NautNut : December 24th, 2021-16:07

🙏🙏🥂

 
 By: FabR : December 24th, 2021-16:26

Love the green!

 
 By: fromthecornerofmyeye : December 20th, 2021-01:26
Always felt that green does accentuate the colour of gold dials! Excellent choice and an awesome strap for Christmas

This darker green works well !

 
 By: GLau : December 20th, 2021-05:03
It strikes a balance of matching the enamel dial nicely while being more subdued vs lighter green straps we have seen from others. Suits your style 👍 Merry X’mas on your wrist ! 😉

You know me well Mr Enamel King..

 
 By: Clueless_Collector : December 20th, 2021-05:33
This one appears black and dark at times and absolutely love it. Thanks Gordon and Merry Christmas to you and family 🎄

This strap definitely pairs extremely well…

 
 By: pfang56 : December 20th, 2021-08:21
Better than the brown strap. I also like the blue strap as well!! Congrats on this combination. I get a sense it’s not only the most economical, but it may be the most accessible and available item from Patek these days Cheers Peter

Lol…good one on the accessibility but with 7 months waiting list on this strap, it is longer than some models I think 😉

 
 By: Clueless_Collector : December 20th, 2021-15:34
Their easy sliding pin also help me make the move….if it’s the regular type where I have to use a strap change tool, I probably won’t do it. Cheers and Thank you Peter.

I like the original configuration and seldom changes looks on my watches from original manufacture designs….

 
 By: Clueless_Collector : December 20th, 2021-15:32
The 5231J has many nice ideas and with the latest 5930P in green, I think it’s a win. Thank you and same to you too, enjoy!

Looks great in green! Congrats!

 
 By: patrick_y : December 20th, 2021-14:50

Green is in, yes. Thanks Patrick.

 
 By: Clueless_Collector : December 20th, 2021-15:30

Looks like it is coming along...hopefully soon for you Peter.

 
 By: Clueless_Collector : December 21st, 2021-17:30
Did your WT hands got fix and may we know the latest story?

Purple would be SICK 🔥

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : December 21st, 2021-18:59

I think so!

 
 By: Saz : December 21st, 2021-19:05
The contrast with the enamel work would be a joy to look at!
