Been toying with an Erika on my black Pelagos. Has anyone tried this and got pics they could share?
It's been a while since I looked but pretty certain I remember at least a few pics on Erika's Instagram account with the Pelagos.
Which colour/stripe variation are you thinking of going with?
Not sure at all. Been toying with selling one more watch after my incomings and I believe every watch has a least one perfect strap for it. I have struggled to find it for the Pelagos so at the moment it’s vulnerable to ze chop. The bracelet doesn’t really do it for me https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...2263f48ec6.jpg, or the rubber. Tried leatherhttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...e77cc36315.jpg which was ok I guess. I guess either the swick or original was the ones in my mind.Quote:

I think the Pelagos suits a wide range of straps though, and looks really good on a vintage canvas. As for the Erika straps, I find the Original a bit too green in pics, and prefer the Vintage, though the red stripe kills it dead. I think if I were to get one I'd be very boring and get plain black, or maybe a bit daring and black with a grey stripe (black cross-stitching all the way though to match the main colour!).
Ye you might be right. The red stripe suits a watch with a bit of colour tho https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...47f3fdad66.jpgQuote:
