232 special tanning ABP straps

Although my poor pics don't do them justice, made a switch with my new Christmas addition from this 26/24 chocolate brown...


to this 27/24 lighter brown...








I like them both quite a bit. Happy Holidays!

ABPs are very nice and complement the 232 very well!

Enjoy!

Best,

amazing photos indeed, Gbr! I'm going to order ABP special tanning (light/yellowish) color as well. What's the code for the one you got? acw3 or acw4?

thanks

I think that strap (esp the color) matches the watch just PERFECTLY! Congrats!

You are lucky guy. You can go see them all in person. Pick your skin out, pick which piece to use. I'd be in trouble if I was in Paris. Probable be buying straps all the time.

Go for it! Mine is a special tanning acw3. They are quite expensive, but very nice! Good luck and keep me posted.
