LV with a new strap
Got a new strap today for my LV from Toshi Straps. Very good quality and comfortable to wear. Lime green and dark brown, what do you think?

at first, I cringed...
it looked like too many colors but then, after looking at it for a bit, I find it kind of nice.. The brown and green look good together.. |

It looks good. Toshi's a great strap maker. Still not 100% with rolex on straps though.

Good for a change. Any Sub looks best with an Oyster IMHO.
But that is a interesting combo. |

Looks awesome! I've been wanting to pull the trigger on a Toshi for a long time.
Green stitching would have looked even better!

Alan, Is The Strap Hard To Put On, It Looks Like A Tight Fit.
Any Trouble With The Spring Bars ? Or Lug Fit ? Is There A Method To Putting It On Correctly ? How Long Does It Take To Get Back From Rich ? Thanks, I'm Ordering On Monday And Went With The Brushed Buckle You Suggested On A Conker Or Caramel Stap With Natural Open Stiching. What Do You Think Of That Combo, Or I Could Go Darker. Thanks Alan. |

You could mount that watch on a piece dental floss and it would still look amazing.
Congrats for having fun with it...that's what they are for. |

The strap itself looks good to me but I think I would have got a black one to match the dial.
Of course, as mentionned by my friend Dino, as long as you like it, it's great! |
