Great photography, Cazalea! Love your GS 👌🏻

Love your strap choice, too! Seems there might be another Purist owner of the SBGH035 soon

Thanks for the compliment. The straps are custom Camille Fournet in suede with rubber lining for the warm and humid Hong Kong weather. Ken

About to be 5 or 6, by my count Will check out some strap options soon...

Anyone has the precious metal version?

You Vlad, you. ...  

Quite tempted to go for one myself And you are doing your best at vladding me back - so all fair

Yin and Yang.
