Feminine BB54 Strap Options?
My wife has a bb54 she likes but she wants a different strap / bracelet that is more feminine.
Doesn’t seem like there is a Tudor jubilee option? Any other strap ideas? Open to anything waterproof. |

Plenty of strap options though. Have her look at girly colored rubber, NATO, or even leather straps. A straight edge Milanese mesh would look nice. I buy them for my divers. I’ve found Staib to be very high quality.

Wouldn’t a bright coloured rubber look pretty weird with the bb54? It’s a gilt / black color

Maybe in your opinion. Some people like the option of a pop of colour on their straps to match outfits or when dressing for different occasions like holidays (vacations).

Can you define “more feminine”? Some guys wear pink shirts with their suits. Confused here.

Go to Aaron Bespoke’s website. He can make a full custom strap from a large array of materials and use the Tudor clasp if you want.

Feminine BB54 Strap Options?
An open link or concho might go well and dial down the beefiness.
https://strapsco.com/ (search for "ladder") Concho's are a retro style for creative minds. Navajo styles are available from silversmiths and native artisans. But definitely not for everyone. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

If you want an extend a link like on modern Rolex, check out steelreef, I added one to my wife’s BB58 blue so now we can both wear it.

Have her take a look at tropic straps. Very elegant and give this 50s/60s resort vibe.

I would try thestraptailor.com He has some good options and does custom orders if you don't see exactly the leather color you like.

Vanguard Specialty Straps now has integrated rubber straps for the BB54 in a variety of colors for $140 w/10% off 1st order. I wear one on my 5558 and love it. They’re the only company that offered a small length sized strap when I was looking.
