Thanks guys. Great shots. I saw a black colored one at the boutique the other day and it felt as you say velvety soft. One of the qualities I like about straps.
I think like the JV it looks a little too "clean" when new. How has it aged since you first got it. I suspect once the edges darken it will look killa! I've got it one on order.

I have just bought an Assolutemente strap for my 000 now I want one of these too!! The strap disease is almost as bad as watch disease

It's actaully worse than the watch disease becuase there are so many good straps and they are much cheaper and more readily available than watches.

The strap is actually very comfortable and looks pretty good too! Best, Fred |

I have 'em in one of my threads. Most comfortable OEM strap ever. However, the inside part of the leather gets uh... "shaved" easily though, everytime I take it on or off, I always have "shavings" on my shirt or pants. Not much, but significant.

Hi Norman. I remember trying on a second hand 233 which had this strap on - and I remember just how amazed I was with the softness/velvety feel of the strap. Thanks for sharing about the "shavings". I've got one on order - but for now, I am very happy with the JV.
