5212a owners, please show me your straps

[Seo]

Hello everyone,

If you have 5212a where you have changed up the strap, can you please share? I am looking for inspiration on what looks good on this watch.

Thanks in advance

Any fine strap will look great on this watch.

Wow nice. Do they let you order the deployant or off your other watch?

Because of this bracelet, I wore the 5212 more than any other watch last year.

I wash my hands a lot, and I am always worried about splashing my straps, so this bracelet makes this watch a daily.

Also, the nature of the display makes it fun for a daily and lastly no one knows it’s a patek so it’s easy to wear to work as a no bling watch.

Shinola doesn’t show the end link bar anymore so maybe confirm with them it hasn’t changed.

If anyone here knows of an OEM SS bracelet I would gladly switch out to a Patek; but I absolutely love this bracelet on my 5212.

Of course you have to have the tools to size it.

The blue suede strap that has been shared is a must - its my favorite.

I also took a tan strap I had from my 5320. I don't mind that on tan either

Its a very easy Patek to change the entire feel with a strap change

The 5212 is a strap monster! I sold mine last yr but my favorite thing about it was how versatile it is.


Here’s a borrowed pic on canvas.

Here was mine on a Delugs strap.

I think a red strap with this watch could look great too! Have a look at this video:

These pics are making me feel bad mine is sitting in the safe.

Looks great, can I ask why you sold?

Seo - I bought the SS deployant from HSWA in NYC in Jan. 2023. It cost $526 + tax + shipping.

I have the exact same configuration - looks amazing! My only comment is the deployant buckle not sitting in the middle of my wrist due to my small sized wrists (i used the last hole)

Very nice. Does it come with a quick release spring bar?

Thanks for that, that would be a nice upgrade.

Sold to make room for a couple other pieces that intrigued me more.

Does anyone know if the 5212a oem spring bars are wg or ss?

Surely it would be safe to use ss springbars right?

Since it is a SS watch I’m pretty sure they are SS

Did you use the springbars that came with the straps or did you transfer over the oem one?

[Aboutderntime]

Love this watch and the combinations!

Basically it looks like any strap goes well with this watch. Amazing.

Do you use OEM springbars or the third party ones that come with the straps?

First change up
