This time I went all out - $59 bottle of cold press extra virgin and a couple different size horse hair artist brushes. I wanted to darken it overall, add some luster, but give it a worn/antiqued look - Left some areas untouched and hit the edges and creases heavily. Not sure if I accomplised my vision, but I really like the final result.

THIS is the strap for the watch.

The burgundy is the prettiest strap--so far. I still want to see the one you get from Stone Creek. Bracelet is right there, though.

Oops, just saw the antiquing job up above. That darkening puts it over the top.

It is. But if you have gleaned anything from my watch buying habits, you would know there is another one just like it hanging in the closet. Why buy one when you can get two?!
