Can I daily an FP Chronometre Souverain?

Hello all,

I am interested in the FP Chronometre Souverain line, and particularly the platinum with white gold dial.

If I were to change the strap, to say a nubuck navy blue or so (does FP make such straps?), can it be worn casually? How versatile do you feel the watch is?

Thank you for your insights and support.

I have not seen a nubuck from FPJ, but they do offer a wide range of colors and straps are easy to change.

The watch is made for daily wear and the quick change strap makes it easy to change the look.

Without question. It’s a nice neutral piece. Strap monster.

Extremely versatile. There are more strap options than you will need, both from FPJ and others and your choice of CS will work on any strap colour or texture.

FPJ now sources all their straps from Jean-Rousseau, so if they can make it, you can get it from them. (Note: I don't know if J-R makes any straps exclusively for FPJ, though that is possible.)
