Any pictures of 6119R with casual straps?

A good friend of mine has just been placed on the waiting list for a 6119R and would like to wear it casually mostly. That is totally possible imho with the standard strap but since the strap is quick release he will probably want to change straps quite often and 95% of his wear will be casually (jeans with a nice shirt in winter and short sleeve polo’s in summer).

If you search the internet you can find quite some pictures of the 6119G with casual straps but I can find close to none of the 6119R (which is not really surprising with the white gold being slightly less formal than rose gold for most).

Perhaps I have overlooked something but ai searched this forum, the internet, Insta and Pinterest and they are very scarce. If anyone has pictures do more causal straps with the 6119R such as less shiny leather or nubuck, please share them or the link!

Thank you!

I’m also interested to see examples of other rose gold pieces with more casual strap options.

This is one thing that I never understood with the Calatrava range. 99% of people always refer to them as 'dress' watches but they can look super casual with a vintage/nubuck leather strap. My favorite timepiece. and yes, that 6119 is looking fantastic with that color scheme above!

I haven’t change out my strap yet, I really do like the one it comes with.

I have wanted a casual strap, but haven’t found one. If you have any good recommendations, I might bite and would be happy to upload a pic.

Some Calatravas yes, I agree.
But I really think trying to dress down this one with the "clous de Paris" case is a lost cause and should be avoided at all costs...
