Blue Pelagos - Black rubber strap
Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone has tried putting the blue pelagos on a black rubber strap (oem, isofrane, or other)? If so, I'd love to see a picture or two as I am planning to purchase one shortly and am somewhat torn between the black and blue versions. I went to look at them "live" today at the local AD and the blue is actually quite nice "in the flesh" and not quite so bright as some of the pictures I see online. Cheers, Brad |

Haven't seen one, but I would think that combo would look pretty sweet.
There's a little watch called the BLNR that uses those two colors pretty effectively, IMO. |

See I like that, the blue oem strap is just too much blue for my tastes.
Thanks for posting! :) |

You can get the strap individually for $95 on the Victorinox website. It's a very high quality strap...a lot nicer than the Tudor OEM. Longer and doesn't smell bad either....actually it has NO odor, so it's possible for rubber not to stink! |
