You've heard of those two guys who painted the ceiling of the Pristine Chapel, Michael and Angelo? Well, I aint them, but I DID put a marker to the white stitching on this aftermarket crock strap:

It works better with the gold hands than the photos show. I can always make the stitching black if I want. Going back to white isn't an option. I think it looks pretty good.

You know Bob.. I like it.

Nice work.

looks great with the gold hands and ecru lume.

for the pix, you might be a bit too close with the flash. maybe back up a bit and then zoom on the watch or crop?

haha !! actually looks good Bob! lets wait and see its patina (fade)

I have that exact strap and I agree that the white clashes with the dial lume color. I am going to try to do exactly what you did.

Yeah, the white didn't work. I thought of yellow and green too but settled on the orange. I'll try to get some better photos. I used to be much more into photography but got into a couple other expensive hobbies......

Well done Bob! I'm a artist myself too... I painted my OEM gator ecru stitching all black.

Your's looks cool!
