V Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 I don't know if you like it or not.. the only think that's certain is that it is a pain in the *** to stitch this thing.. It took me 2 days to finish it and I usually finish my straps fast. It is 25mm at the lugs so it will fit both my Cali and my 112 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victoria Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 It looks like the other hand-stitched one! I like that one better, I think. The effort is amazing though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V Posted January 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 It looks like the other hand-stitched one! I like that one better, I think. The effort is amazing though. Which other one? I guess this one but the point is that I haven't done it myself The leather is mine but it was made by Aaron. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victoria Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 The leather is mine but it was made by Aaron. Ahh, I see. Well, the stitchwork on this one is more discreet. The other one overwhelms the loveliness of your Cali dial (which looks awesome BTW!). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THanks a lot for the compliments Indeed Aaron's is more delicate.. mine is more rough/vintage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FxrAndy Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 I like it V, puts a bit more depth to the watch, some thing else, a bit of zing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V Posted January 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 Thanks everyone.. It was indeed difficult to open all the holes and stitch this 6mm thick hide!!!! Keep in mind that Aaron's was only 3,5mm and very soft Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dluddy Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 I like it V. Incredible work on the stitching. Should look only better with the nice patina that Greek hide gets.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
