New Strap for the 5524

Trying this on for the summer so I don't ruin the leather in the scorching heat.

That looks great- really suits the watch.

I still prefer the leather, but a good looking change for summer!

I like the color. Agree not my favorite for a long term combo but not bad for a fun change. Enjoy!

I feel that this wouldn't be my first choice, but it is your watch, and you should wear what makes you happy.

Don't like it, looks top heavy and the spring bar showing gives me a slight cringe. I would maybe opt for a sailcloth strap for the summer. Enjoy it.

IMHO this strap does not do justice to your beautiful watch. Better waste $400 on OEM strap and enjoy the beauty of your watch more.

I have ordered a 7234G strap for my 5524G and looking forward to trying that.

I tend to agree - only issue with PP straps is that I also ordered that strap and one in alligator for the 5524G (both are custom, including what is on the 7234G), and it takes 4-5 months. So maybe you have it right.

I have 3 Patek straps.. only problem is it's 105 degrees and leather falls apart quickly when you sweat in it. So this is a summer option
