Absolutely love this watch.

Congratulations! Enjoy in good health. :)

Were the extra straps shipped directly from FPJ? Or were they purchased as add-ons from the AD?

Thank you. I purchased those straps from fp journe boutique with the watch. You have to pay extra for them. They are not cheap but top quality.

I totally agree. The orange strap is on another level and goes so well with the CB!

Following the lead of the OP, I placed a deposit with the Geneva boutique today. Excellent and courteous service. ETA is February or March of 2018. So excited for this one!

Sorry for the late reply to this. See below, it's hard to capture the colour correctly but I find this is a really subtle strap choice for the CB. It does also seem to have tints of blue and maybe even green in the colour.

Would be difficult for any strap color to detract from that watch. Really a work of art, very outside the box in a good way.

Thank you for sharing these photos. It really looks great on the grey strap.

I managed to change the light blue strap with an orange one and couldn't be happier. Still on the original navy blue strap and will put on the orange soon. Here is a photo of the watch on orange strap from a fellow member whose advice was the main deciding factor for me

Wow, that orange is amazing!

I need inspiration for what straps to choose with mine... looks like I'll go with orange and the grey as well!

I actually tried to get the Orange strap recently but hard to locate in the smaller size. I love it on the CB.

I also looked at the green (or maybe they call it Khaki) that you mentioned earlier and it's a nice subtle colour. I may buy it for any watch I have.

I got the orange from geneva boutique. They have all colors and sent to me by post free of charge. It took a while but eventually made it.

Attached photo of all colors they have. For me caramel (tan) is a must and orange comes second. But it depends on personal tastes. Good luck

You need to turn it over so can make sure it is really a "she" and not a "he"

When I tried it on at the boutique they had it in this one. Cognac I believe. The best one imho and the one I’ll get when I take delivery.
