Swore I wouldn’t do this...
The 26480 comes with two straps, blue and white. I like the blue but swore I would never wear the white, I’m nowhere near cool enough to pull it off and am too old for such boldness!
I ordered two further straps, ghost grey and red. So far, the watch has been worn on the grey only. But today, I was enjoying the sunshine at home, and had what can only be described as a moment of mid-life weakness! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Looks great. I have a white on my 44mm st panda dial and its one of my favs, even though I initially thought the same thing as you re: not being able to pull it off.

Looks great and you can totally pull it off in the summer (and spring and fall).

Looks awesome!
Is the white a true white or more of a cream white in person ?

as long as you don't pair it with white-framed glasses, i believe you're safe.

I like it on the white. In the right place and time the white strap is solid.

It looks great. Nothing wrong with white on pretty much all ROO's, and with your own personal artwork as a back drop it works even better. Nice.

I just picked up some "Fall" straps for the Ghost - Espresso, Forest Green, and Olive. I'm gonna continue rocking the Miami Blue on it as long as the weather stays warm. But when I switch over, I'll post some pics. |

If you have a ROO and you have a white strap and it is high summer, it all makes sense.
