my blue is more humble than y'alls....

Howdy pardners,

I received my 5205G blue today. Before ordering i called it mesmerizing. Now that I've seen y'alls fancy blues and whatnots, mine looks darn humble and modest.

i ordered the 5207G strap for it.

Also ordered a RG folding clasp for the 5905R and considering some different straps. Y'alls suggestions are always appreciated.

HeeHaw says Hi.

I wore it today for the first time even though i have had it around 3 weeks. One hand 5905R and the other 5205G while dining in your hood.

I love 5905R. In my search for 5905R, i ended up buying 5320G (the best and most humble of the bunch), 5905R (the dramatic of the bunch), and 5205G (the mesmerizing of the bunch).

5905R fits my manly CountryBoy wrist real well as is. I donot think you need a folding clasp for it but i ordered that anyways.

Are you also getting the 5205R? (i see it in your list of watches).

5205R black dial? gorgeous.
white dial? gorgeous.
All gorgeous.
I'm doing my best to stop. If I continue would be the sports ones. Then again my horse prefers it when i dress up in Patek dress watches to ride him. If you do not respect your horse, who are you gonna respect?

Which 5905R straps are you considering? I did not die for the brownish ones and may stick to the black....

You're a man of great taste my friend. Looking forward to seeing your 5905R pictures with the funky cool straps.

I will follow you, even though my fashion forward horse will be ahead of both of us.

Howdy uniqueMR,

I bought this Camille Fournet white strap for my platinum havana dial blancpain perpetual but ended up never using it.

May I ask which company's white or orange strap you are considering?

Gotta buy 4-5 straps just for me. Idk but white is not looking good man. I might change my mind on that color.
Orange is better. But lets wait and see :)

For someone as humble, and modest as you, may i suggest Camille Fournet, Jean Rousseau, Multicuirs, or even Patek Philippe straps. A friend whose style i respect, likes a company in Australia, MillnRocky.

The white one i have is 22mm. I really want to see yours with orange on. Now, when i picture orange, cannot help but think of Hermes.

Personally i do not recommend the white. I will be happy to send mine to you to try. At the Patek shop i preferred the lighter color chestnut but somehow felt black was the winner.
