Gents.. i am going to say very few words here because i am speachless...

MY WATCH HAS COME TO LIVE ..I CANNOT BELIEVE THE EFFECT.....
simply gentlmen (and lasses)... There is only one Gregoire Texier.. this is another level altogether with straps.. this is something else....

this is the art making a watch using only leather... i never thought the Fang (233) would look any better from the day i first saw it until NOW... SHE IS ALIVE... Feast your eyes..

Ok... Now I'm looking for ways to get this strap... Poison is deep man...

Trurolexer · 14 July 2009, 01:50 AM

I believe Gregoire don't have a website. He make strap when he on the mood.
If you really interest, you can email him. You can PM me for his email address.

louie · 14 July 2009, 02:25 AM

Guys. u can PM me ior TR for Gregoire's email. i will ask his permission.. he does not do this as a job.. he does it as a form of art coming from his pure affection and appreciation to watches, just like any of us.. but he took it one step further.. for Gregoire to make you a strap, i think you need to catch him at the right time with the right mood and most importantly.. you need to be the right person.. a deserving home for his children....
I know that he may not be available for the following two weeks.. but try after that..

Cheers Chris.. I Knew you will appreciate this work of art.. he made this one especially for the 233.. and he made the point that the shading is unusual and intresting and it paid off.. i think the shading has more than paid off.. it brought life to the watch and gave her tendernous, wisdome, feeling and expression almost to the point of speach as far as i can see.. and that means a lot to me.. it is not just a strap.. it is not just a watch.. it is the souls of artists with their magical feelings traped in a timeless piece that sings to my heart the most beautiful tunes and it is right there on my wrist.. what else can i ask for..
