Boderry Voyager bronze - what strap?
Hi there. I cannot resist the prize and the fascinating look and gifted to myself this bad boy for Christmas.
It comes in a leather zulu, big, bulky... I hate it. Tried on something I have around, but I'm not convinced.
What do you suggest?
I was thinking of a slightly red(ish) leather still with white stitching... But I don't know...
(NB i see that there is not a lot of content about this watch, if you want some information or content... Ask me an I will try to answer as much as I can)
Ps bonus photo: purring cat and bronzy boderry...

I am proud to wear watches that means something to me. I Love Russian Watches for their robustness and underrated elegance (In some case :D)

Nice watch. I like the tweed and the brown leather but maybe sailcloth. If you stay with leather could do blue to match the hands, black with red stitching, the red u we’re speaking of would work too. It looks like a strap monster so you definitely got options.
Hey love the watch! Is this a heavy one? I am looking to buy this exact model but since I am new to this hobby I was not really sure if I can wear it comfortably.

hello, man!
Welcome to the hobby.
If you mean heavy in terms of weight: 86 grams with the brown leather in the photos, not heavy at all. really comfortable.
If you mean heavy in terms of aesthetics: yes the lugs are chunky and loooong. You have to love them.
for reference my wrist: between 17,5cm to 18 cm

Hey thanks for the response!
I was really going back and forth about buying this watch. I think I am going to pull the trigger and buy it. I cannot resist not having this watch 😂

Shoot it man! You'll be happy! Tell when you'll have it!
I like that Tweed strap you have in that one photo. However, I think a blue to match the hands or maybe go left field and try a green band (perhaps emerald-ish).

Neve thought about green thank you.

Happy to help.
The carrure (already has its patina...)
The lugs (already stained... 😡)
Going towards warmer browns seems to be a good solution.
Completed with a rose goldish buckle and pin.
