Thanks to Driver I learned about ABP, strapmakers in Paris. I just couldn't resist and today finally some interesting stuff (in my opinion) arrived.
First, I wanted a blue croco strap on deployant for my blue Chronomatic 24H LE. Looks like this in the original state:
I don't mind the original calf strap, but I would prefer a croco strap on deployant. The deployant clasp I already had, so it was just to order the strap for less than half of the Breitling croco:
With a few days wear I figure it will curve around my wrist as it should, but it is already very comfortable - and the padding is excellent.
Then, I figured that if you custom order a strap, why not take it a step further and make something unusual?
The idea was to get something for the white 6.75:
Please forgive the smudged crystal and the misalignment - I was just too excited.
So, here is the python strap:
Yep, you're right - it's fitted to an OR deployant clasp. I thought it could be an interesting idea.
I like it and it is very smooth even from the beginning. I will most likely try to fit it to other Breitlings as well in a near future.
