Brown on steel looks better than black on gold I think though....

Hello All,

Quick question. If I can get a blue strap does it require anything special (modifications) to install on my 5164. Or is it a simple swap out. The blue looks really good on that watch IMHO.

Nope, direct fit. Just an FYI, that one photo circulating shows the blue much more so than it is in real life. I think my photo gives a much better representation of the color, it is very dark blue. The blue is almost (if not identical) the blue in the AM/PM indicators.

Totally agree on the blue, very very subtle until certain light or a flash hits it

May I ask how much you paid for it? My ad quoted 500 USD. Is that the retail price? Do they provide discount?

arejay · 19 March 2019, 02:22 AM

Steel bracelet is $4,000.

No bargain. I just bought a rubber strap from the salon, and it was £200

Just tell your AD that

Hello, I purchased an aftermarket green strap for my 5164a and it seems like the lugs prongs that are supposed to go into the watch aren't lining up correctly.

Any ideas?

Would love to see the backs of some of these watches following a strap change. Not an easy surgery and as such usually leaves scars.

This is my plan as well. Get some FaceTime with the AD an also have them not scratch my lugs. Have they treated yours well?

Calatrava r · 5 April 2019, 01:20 AM

PP got wise to owners cross fitting the straps on the various references some time ago. Want the strap buy the watch it comes on.

Is that the brown on the 5167a? I like it. Was told by PP the brown would not fit mine.

To be fair, my AD or salon have been great, as for scratches I'm that blind I would be able to see them lol,

But honestly they have the tools and the no how, and I've always trusted them and will for ever more
