Hi,
I currently have a brown croc on my TOC LE Mercury Dial, but was wondering what or how it would look with a black strap (calf, croc, IWC nylon?)

If anyone as one if you could post pictures that would be great.

Thanks
Brez

You could always try the "My Breitling Made To Measure" on Breitling web site if you don't get the pics here.

I tend to lean towards brown straps on silver dials. It can be done nicely, but I often find the contrast is too much for my liking. That being said, I think a black croc would be a better option than calf and certainly nylon. The TOC deserves a pair of dress shoes to go with the more refined look. JMO

Sorry, the only shots I currently have of mine. Looks and feels great on either croc or calf. Both black and brown are nice.

Cheers

Thanks for the replies and happy holidays to all of you!

I'm thinking black croc will be the way to go. I like the look, it's definitely more dressy than my brown croc and it will fit my deployant clasp!!!
