Having been given a Tag for my birthday I have now got a bit of a watch fetish, what I really want now is a black face watch with orange strap, the bigger the face the better. Any ideas anyone?

My brothers watch springs to mind immediately, he got it as he is obsessed with rugby and apparently it is the official 6 nations watch.



When trying to find a that pic of it I discovered that Tissot do a lot of orange straps, but really you could always get a watch you like and add a strap afterwards instead of being tied to what I am sure is a limited number of companies offering orange straps from the factory

Budget?

Most watches have a black face anyway and an orange strap can be added for £30 from anywhere. Don't get hung up on that!

You can put one on your TAG I expect.

Hmmmm budget maybe upto about £300-400 depending on the watch. The Tag does not have black face and also it is the only chain strap watch I like. Buying the strap separately is an idea though, thanks all.

I have one of these very good watch with a lot of little features you will never use but love to show off! The CF face is lovely on it too.

Got one of those somewhere with 2 orange straps, one with black stitching. Only worn it once I think, must start having a clear out.

Jesus those watches are so loud they don't need an orange strap to bring further attention to them !

My effort. Not as expensive as the others and more of a faded orange but a Tommy Hilfiger.

I have a similar one to the second one, but on a steel bracelet and with an all black bezel.
