Strap Combinations - 5168G Green

[DL19]

Hi All,

Wondering if anyone has come across any interesting strap combinations for the 5168G (green)?

Can't find anything online... was thinking white for a change, or even orange with the green dial might look nice

Thanks!

If you know anyone, who owns a 5968, ask them to order one from Patek or able to source the original orange Patek strap for Aquanauts, perhaps, give it a go or you could try RubberB straps or other brands. I believe the lug width of your watch is 22mm. They have universal straps.

I ordered an orange strap for my friend 5168, but his case and the strap thickness did not fit each other.

This gives an idea indeed. While orange and green typicallly go very well together, this is not the best combo IMHO. Perhaps a beige rubber or nato strap would work if you want some variation? Or something like the black 5226/5326 strap?

Thanks! I’ll pass on Orange but white looks interesting ��

What about black? Or maybe a darker olive?

Good shout! Darker olive would look great

Looks good on the white strap
