New Gunny straps for my 233
When I first got my 233 I got a few Toshi straps - http://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=420370

I wanted something different next time and after a few emails with Pattyb69 decided on a couple of Gunny straps - the Caitlin 2 and Caitlin 4. I took some photos of them today.

The Caitlin 2 (the lighter one) is softer and really comfortable, but I like them both.

Beautiful straps Martin! And those photos are awesome! Its such a pain in the a$$ to get a good photo of the 233 without reflecting yourself on the dome

Nice to see a quality photo of the Caitlin 4. I may have to add this to my strap list

Hehe, Pattyb69 sold me too on the caitlin2 and Fedex should be delivering mine during the week

Congrats, both look great!

You're not wrong there! I'm a photographer, but don't have any kit for product shots, so a few chairs with a white sheet and a black sheet carefully placed over them, and lots of trial and error.

I got mine yesterday!!

I asked for a slightly different formula, that's why it looks a little bit different from the regular design.
The quality is really nice and the leather is soft and supple. (Maybe not as supple as the toshi storm grey but I believe it will after few days of wearing)

I recently ordered a Caitlin 1 from Gunny for my 305 (as well as an Amazon)...very impressed with Peter's straps!
