PAM683 with new straps

Hello forum, new member here. Got the 683 for my missus in early December last year. Waited a month to get the XS strap. So basically the watch remains in the box for four weeks and can’t wear it due to the strap (not a good feeling).

The straps finally arrived this morning, I’ve ordered a white and a dark blue as well. Here’re the pics

Sorry for the picture quality, still figuring out how to upload within the size limit.

Great looking straps. I own most of the colors and have not worn the white yet but may put it on today.

I am a big fan of bold strap colors and I like the white a lot.

Diggin' that white strap as well. Wonder if it'd look good on the 233.

Yeah. The lume on the 233 isn't exactly white, hence my hesitation. If it worked, it'd make a great summer combo.

If there is any kind soul proficient with photoshop willing to try this, here's the 233 picture:

Thanks for all your replies I wasn’t expect the white strap is such a good match for the submersible, she kinda doubtful the submersible over luminor to being too “bold/men’s watch”. But now turns out she absolutely love it. And the 42mm size is perfect as well, I believe the new movement also change the thickness to the case to make it more wearable to lady.
