Can I politely ask for a few strap suggestions for this old boy?
The basic black is a bit tired. ...
The color is one thing, but not the most important. You can wear every color on this watch, this is a question of your taste.
The points are: 1. leather qualitiy, in this case fine croco 2. workmanship, for Vacheron C always handmade 3. thickness, between 2 and 4. form, never straigt like this brown one, always waisted from 18mm to 16, better 14mm This VC is a very elegant watc...
I agree the current strap is hopeless
Thank you for the input. You make excellent points. Source such a strap from VC directly only? Or other?
If you want to dress it down...
you could go with pigskin or natural barenia and hand stitched edges.
Dark blue
Dark or royal blue would work But on the watch itself; may I ask from approx which year it’s from?
