Early 90's Blancpain chrono.

But all Blancpains look like they are from the early 90s.

Looking for yet another strap for my Seiko.

First one is brown cald and second one Lizzard Burgundy

 

[Lord Buckley]

A very good looking watch, the price however is a big let down.

The price is a killer. A shame.

Lizard strap is nice, but out of my comfort zone. Its affordable though

The Seiko diver in the top two pictures is a beauty - what model is it?

You have a comfort zone for watch straps?

So do you??

I'd say a black watch band looks better if you're wearing black shoes as well...

It's similar to how I wouldn't wear a brown leather belt with black leather shoes, but one of those coloured canvas belts could be worn with either.

 

[Monkeyface]

So do you??

Same same, but different!

 

[Leitmotif]

Monkeyface whats wrong with either of these straps?

You moron, don't drive and text. You're not a high school girl.

come on, it was just a quick snap

 

[Monkeyface]

Quick snap = quick crash

On the upside, means you can finally replace that VW for something American made!

Lol, the one merican made would love to have is the Raptor, but 80k.

After he gets out of the can for killing an old lady crossing the road.

 

[fxh]

Nearly all of these watches are fugly. And I can't stand those stretchy metal bands. Ugh

 

[Monkeyface]

65k sticker. I'm sure you can find one for close to MSRP. Good resale value too. Don't buy the watch strap and put the money in the raptor fund. Time to be a true patriot!

Lol like 20 bucks is gonna make a difference.

Is that the new one?

Yes it is.

 

[Monkeyface]

Yes it is.

With that attitude it sure won't. Every little bit helps! Or do you really wanna drive a VW for the rest of your life (or worse, a Camry)?

It doesn't look that good in that photo. Not Euros 3000 good!

I would like one just to have it as the first Seiko divers, the price I would be interested at would need to be in the Oris Diver Sixty-Five range i.e. €1500 or below. Similar style.

For 1500 you can get a Tudor. Better than seiko.

 

[Lord Buckley]

You need to go up a fair bit to get a decent Tudor i.e. the Black Bay 36mm around €2300 and the larger Black Bays €2800. Around about.

Now, now, let Leitmotif alone. Let him enjoy his top top brands of VW, Eidos, Seiko, Carmina and Portuguese-made Italian Incotex.

His only saving graces are Barba & Parteopea
