Beauty Or A Bust? Bluesy On A Strap

Disclaimer: The pics don't show it well but the strap is blue and it matches the blue of the Sub almost identically.

Well after looking for a strap that would match my TT Blue Sub for a long time, I finally found one and here are the pics. Some of you will probably turn your computers off when you see this, but I like it!

I think it looks horrible. Not trying to hurt your feelings, but you asked.

That's it, I'm leaving TRF until next week (it helps that I'm leaving town too!)!

Not my bag, baby! Wearing your watch like this may very well result in your avatar go-cart accident!

These responses are hilarious

Actually the blue on the strap matches the blue of the watch better than the pics can show. Some of you guys just won't be converted

I've been thinking of trying a Speedbird Nato on my Invicta. Will post pics.

As for yours, I kind of like it. Quirky.

Sorry, but I think it looks horrible. TT watches have no busisness on nylon straps.

Plain stainless and nato strap I like, I just think the blusey is so nice as is you are on to a losing battle. Why change something that is stunning as standard???

I'm going to wear this to the next gtg just to so that some of you guys and gals can't eat

In fact, maybe I'll put the DD on the nylon... ok I'd never do that.

Not eating is one thing, but impairing other's eyesight is a federal offense! You sure have chosen "one," Chozn1! (Actually, if you're comfortable and you like the combo, the hell with everyone's opinion - mine included.)

I thought it was black red and gold dude.

If it's blue I bet in natural light it suits it more!!!!!

I think on a sandy beach it'd look pretty hot!!!!

Yeah I edited the original post to describe that. It matches the blue almost perfectly, and I would be equally horrified if it was black.

I sort of dig it. Are striped watch bands like rep ties? Will everyone think you went to Eton?
