V Posted June 29, 2006 Report Posted June 29, 2006 Well for starts I will post the photos of the watch with a strap I was wearing most of the time while away... 212 with the jacket strap on a XXL style with a XaMas buckle. I don't know if this historic strap is the best match with the 212, but as it is my favourite watch I wanted to have the best together
Dani Posted June 29, 2006 Report Posted June 29, 2006 Very very nice Straps,love the combo whit the 212 on the first pics
Estaban Posted July 1, 2006 Report Posted July 1, 2006 Definitely better on the 111, but I'm not sure I like the "finish" of the strap. It looks too delicate, like it's calf glove leather, rather than a tougher steer leather. I'm guessing it scratches quite easily. That said, you did a nice hommage to the XaMas. Love the buckle.

Estaban... The most difficult person to please The finish of the strap is looking 'soft' but after almost one month of wear even in hot temperatures it is exactly the same as when I got it. It doesn't scratches at all and the colour darkens with the sun. Unfortunately there is not a way to enjoy it 100% from photos.. As kegra said when I showed it to him.. it is much much better in person
