Help me decide my next strap color
I have the new 44mm novelty ceramic (gold markers, black dial, blue-tipped sub-dial hands) and looking to start playing with new strap ideas. I will going OEM, and would love some input from the crowd on what I should get.

There seems to be 2 blue straps -- one is a darker navy and one is more of a blue blue. I'm not sure which would be closer, but this photo, credit Nop Srinara, shows a great example. I'm not sure if that is OEM since the grooves in the strap seem to extend down farther than my OEM, but I like the color:
The 42mm strap, here, seems a little duller (or just the lighting?) |

Credit to tokei_daisuki on Instagram for posting this picture -- perfect timing!
Here are some blue straps to compare. I think the middle one looks best. |

I’ll let Ash chime in for the finer details but sure he’s been waiting quite some time and still hasn’t received his custom blue GP. |

Hello Ash,
How long has it been since you put in the order? Can you share a price quote? PM me instead if you prefer :-) |
