Help me select a strap for my Dornbluth

[andy tims]

My 99.1 should be delivered in September. It's like this but with the applied markers.



Could you people of excellent taste help me choose a strap (or maybe 2 )



It's between A, B & E so far.

Thanks in advance

[Dr Phibes]

B, nice contrast with the blue dials

[grumbledoak]

B or E.

[Fittster]

D.

E is not the strap of a gentleman.

[PaulHogan]

As a side issue to colour; if you get two, can you get one strap supplied unpunched? Then when you are happy with the notch you use on the supplied punched strap you could have a single hole punched in the second strap. I reckon that would be pretty cool.

A - just to be awkward!

[toohuge]

Wow, Andy. Lovely piece, very jealous and hats off to your excellent taste! I personally prefer E, I love blue and I have a blue modena on my citizen automatic (I am yet to show the forum!).

[Spice_Weasel]

A stunning piece, Andy. Bet you can't wait.

If it was me, I would go for C) black for evening wear (match your shoes, black tie etc) - it is a dress watch after all. Then I would have a brown (B) strap for day time wear.

[Phooey]

Deffo not A or E. Any of the others will look good.

[MarkoNoTVR]

C or D for me. Fallback option of B if I had to.

[tertius]

A I think, but possibly B.

[andy tims]

Thanks for the input guys. Think I'll get B and E

[Phooey]

E

[Ikemi]

C & D for me

[Pesty]

C for me every time.

of your choices B

[Stuart]

B for me, but I'd pick up an aftermarket blue croc strap for occasional wear. Tertius had some great pics of Stowa MO on a blue strap - similar size and colour scheme to the Dornbleuth. Presumably Andy you're thinking about matching in the blue to the blued steel hands?

Lovely watch, and a superb choice. Nice work. Ed Hasler has the same one coming I think?

[ehasler]

Mine is due in September as well, but I've gone for the black face. Really looking forward to it - just need to decide what to get engraved on the back of the movement now!

You're not asking for advice, are you?

You're saying 'Look at my tasteful Dornbluth'.

I've been away from the watch forum for a while, it's still the funniest forum on PH.
