Here we go ...
Team,
Everyone should be aware about my rejection of metal bracelets.
This makes me a obsessed strap collector:
1) U.N. Hammerhead with a Kain Heritage strap. (I need to let go the Hammerhead - regrets)
2) Omega Speedmaster Split Seconds with a Camille Fournet strap. This is the oldest strap that I have. Circa 2008.
3) Omega Speedmaster Moon Phase Black with a Peter Gunny strap.
4) Omega Speedmaster Grey Side of the Moon with a Dark Side strap. I could not accept the original grey strap. Way too much gray to me.
5) Omega Speedmaster "Tintin" with a Master Luigi strap (local here).
6) Omega Speedmaster "Gemini IV" with a HIRSCH James strap.
7) IWC Top Gun Miramar 44mm with a Kain Heritage strap.
A wonderful weekend to all.
Cheers,
Nilo

Wristscan starts now! Theme: Custom strap and bracelet pairings...
This is a relatively new addition. An Eterna Kontiki! It was originally equipped with a nice leather strap but I thought a mesh bracelet looked more appropriate. What do you all think? Looking forward to your custom pairings. Best, Mike This message has b...
Ok, here we are...
TR 900: Pakistani Milspec: Tudor 7924: A friend gifted me this Cordovan strap especially for the Jardur: Now, a bit more provocative: HAGWE, All. Nicolas ...
Never thought I would say this, but the Duomètre . . .
. . . on OTAN really works for me!
I had to do a double take when I saw that camo nato...
the only other time I did this was with P@trice's PP wristshot while swimming! I like the background straps perfect for this week's theme. Best, Mike
I am really happy you say that. I was wondering how many would notice its presence, and hoping for a lot of people to do so.
It is such a beauty and character! Thanks, Joe. Nicolas
Cool combos, indeed !.. For me Milspec & Jardur pls !.. Oh, + The Duometre of course..
.. The WG Duometre Chronometer on NATO really is provocative. Best, hs
A NATO on a Duometre!!!
The Manufacture should send a troubleshooter to visit you: Just wait. Cheers, Nilo ...
Fantastic watches and photography Nicolas...
... I specially like the last two: that JLC and Patek show such an audacious options! Love them! Hagwe my friend!
That will be Great! Will be very happy for you...
... Knowing you got it my friend! Cheers! Abel
I will light one too! And cross my ...
... Fingers to reinforce !! Look forward to your showing this in your collection soon!!
Sinn with original strap...
and with a newer leather one. Good thread Mike , I like your Kontiki I don't know if l like the mesh so much, I think leather is better for this kind of a watch. But it is your watch you make the rules here PS. Have you considered clear silicone? Best Edw...
Sinn-free, as always ;)
The aftermarket strap you have selected is a great complement!
As you may know Sinn was also a name for Irish liberal party....
but I like the Sinn as a watch name the best after it's founder. Best Edward
I take it you're not a member of the Canadian branch :)
And watches definitely beat politics
The custom leather strap looks like a real good choice for your Sinn
I used to not like the mesh bracelet look...avoided them completely. But after the wearing one I realized that these were soooo comfortable because I could adjust the fit perfectly. A silicone strap would work too but because of my job I have to wash my h...
Of course.....
to me the Kontiki has a little bit of a futuristic look (in a good sense) and the mesh is a bit to conservative. Do what works for you the best. Wear your new addition in good health Mike. Cheers Edward
My LUC Sport...
With a non-standard leather strap from CHopard. Blue on blue Btw. really like your KonTiki! Seems like Eternas are emerging all over these days ...
Thank you!
Was surprised how well it worked out. The pattern and colour of the strap match the dial very well. And with a strap production time of around two weeks, Chopard exceeded all my expectations
Thanks and I like the custom OEM strap from Chopard the grain pattern goes well with the dial motif
I think we are seeing a lot more Eternas because the merchandise has to "move" Best,Mike
Love it, Build quality/case work is good. Lume is more than adequate. Quite surprised at how often I wear it.
The SW200 is obviously not one of the in house Eterna Calibers but works well nevertheless
They are still very underrated
Hope that the new designs will match the very solid in house movement development - and there is promise visible
I like classic leather straps....
Here are two new combos.... Blue for Parking.... Brown for Geophysic.... And a old combo on my Vintage 94! HAGWE Blomman ...
No GP straps this time....
I think the two JLC would develop rust if I did strap one on...! Best Blomman
Lovely shots "on the rocks" my dear friend Blomman! Great combos all...
... love the Parking Memovox and the Vintage 94 but my heart directs my mind to the Geophysics everytime I view it! Hagwe my friend! Abel
The space framed by the intersection of the lugs . . .
. . . case and bracelet would be a little too large for my comfort, Mike. I'm going to have a similar problem with my Karree Panodate when a strap change becomes necessary, because the formed ends of the factory straps aren't available aftermarket. A norm...
. . . and a close-up . . .
. . . so that the texture . . . . . . is more clearly visible. ...
Is that an Attila special order?
I completely understand...I don't like that gap between the mesh bracelet and case either but there is no aftermarket solutions either. The OEM bracelet does match right up to the case but it didn't fit or feel right. I do like that sharkskin, the texture...
Good eye, Mike! Yes, it's one of Attila's creations . . .
. . . as are most of my straps, along with another order or two in the pipeline. Art
Unusual combination...
But I like it a lot - nice contrast to the more delicate looking Seiko
Really like that one.. Pretty cool shoes !.. :))
Love the stiches\' contrast.. Shark must be really for also heavy use.. Great combo ! & HAGWE, hs
Very nice set of straps Art. Shark skin adds an attractive texture to the looks of ...
... your lovely Seiko. Hagwe dear Art!!
Great combo on that PAM...
and congrats on being the first with a PAM photo in this thread Best, Mike
Great Combos Fernando! Love those sets of straps!...
... and the Geo and Pam of course! Hagwe my friend! Abel
I rarely stick with the standard strap...
but this one keeping having a strap change... The latest addition... this stunning Stefano Bemer strap with that touch of orange stitching. Feeling Blue... Or Orange... But as custom straps go... I can't not post my RJ with the strap made by our own MOC! ...
Yes that last one is hard to beat!
Btw where is our own Mo Not "seeing" him lately here Cheers D
He always says he is 'busy'...
Not sure if this is the work type busy or the busy with the females... Cheers Andrew
