That will do very nicely!!!
Smart very smart indeed.
Personally, I can’t stand this style of strap, just looks scruffy to me. I prefer traditional styles, especially on a vintage watch. To my eyes it looks totally wrong, a nice added dark blue alligatrvwould look far nicer.
Well, you did ask!
Like Crocs?
Not for me, HAS to be period. When mine’s not on it’s 1170 bracelet, a big hole Tropic is the one.
"shoes''?
Just let him wear that bad boy in good health.Quote:

For me, an exotic skin is too formal for a non-formal chronograph. Plain calf or perforated of some description. Flat profile too.
Here’s what I’ve ended up with on my 176.007, when I’m not using the bracelet. Not to everyone’s taste I’m sure!

OP's choice wouldn't be mine, but the tan on blue looks incredible!
I have to say I wasn't aware of the 176.007 before and it's gorgeous! :biggrin:

It's a sporty watch; perhaps would look odd with aligator strap; do you have an example? Keen to see what it looks likeQuote:

OP - your choice may have worked better if the blue dial were a matt finish.....
Sorry, not the response you were hoping for I am sure. Nice watch btw!
