TT Blue Submariner + Blue Leather Strap

[Gerry]

Well, after trying a blue NATO strap on my TT Blue Sub, I thought I would stir things up a little more

The blue dial that stands out so beautifully on the 16613 means that not everything will be a nice match with this watch. My aim was to dress it up a little as an alternative to the bi-metal Oyster bracelet. My only wish was that the buckle had been gold but the strap only came with an SS buckle and in any case, the older Oyster bracelets had a non-polished SS clasp so I think there is a little precedence there.

I've always thought that the 16613 straddles the territory between tool watch and jewellery and it's the latter aspect that I wanted to bring out a little. The gold and blue really make the 16613 stand out and I think this strap is a good match for the blue in the dial.

Again, this might be too 'out there' for some but I do like the look and I like that my favourite watch can take on a few different looks. I hope you'll like it too
