Strap me up!
I adore my JLC but one of my biggest gripes was that I just felt I couldn't wear it on more occasions than just for the office or if I'm going somewhere fancy etc. The biggest hurdle was the leather strap, it just felt too formal.
I remember seeing a video ages ago with a Reverso on a beads of rice bracelet so I found a good one from Watchgecko and fitted it on today and all I can say is WOW! this changes the look of the watch so much and I feel so much more comfortable wearing it with just jeans and a t-shirt or in a more casual setting. I actually feel like I can give the JLC the wrist time it deserves!
So that leads me to ask you guys and gals - what's your favourite watch+strap combo? post your pics below!
Hey there! Just your average collector doing a terrible job at sticking to a 3 piece collection :)
Nato is the most comfortable while being cheap enough to swap out colors and styles fast and cleans up easily. Leather smells if you wear it longer and harder to clean and keep its condition. Metal is heavy and pulls hairs after a while but looking nicer than leather.
