Camille Fournet straps
Since reading on a previous thread about Camille Fournet straps and a kindly member telling me the right size for my 5205, I thought a honey coloured strap in ostrich would look good.
Got the strap delivered yesterday and had it fitted today. Even my Patek AD said it was beautiful and took pictures he said he would send to Patek. Needless to say I am not disappointed. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

This company makes most Patek stock straps. Their quality is superb.

My AD said they were more more renowned for JLC straps than Patek - but either way I love it and indeed the quality is outstanding. They had to make some small cuts in the top or the strap for the Patek spring bars and I didn’t have a screwdriver thin enough to get the screw out from the calatrava deployment and they had to make an extra hole for my skinny wrists.

CF straps are great leather. However...their floating keeper on the straps I purchase have consistently been too big, floppy, and didn’t hug the loose end of the strap at all. Plus they screwed up my 5164 when I was last in their Paris shop and refused to accept responsibility, so I’m a client of Jean Rousseau and ABP Concept, and no longer CF. Shame, because as I said they do make nice leather.

Looks nice
If you live in the EU (or are visiting the EU) and can stop by their Paris shop, their prices are a bit less in-store compared to ordering online. |
