Icon10 Tudor Heritage goes OLD SCHOOL!

Decided to change up the look on my Tudor Heritage by going back to it's 70's roots. Figured since I am a child of that era and my watch was intended to pay tribute to it's ancestor of the same vintage, I would give it a nostalgic look similar to adding the cyclops by putting it on a leather bund.

Maybe I should dust off my Pucha shell necklace... Ok, perhaps not!

Have a great day all!

I love everything about the late 60s and early 70s including the orange and brown color schemes. Looks awesome on the thick leather strap. Enjoy!

Feel like I should go dig out my record player and fire up the Doors or a little Hendrix

You're in.....are you from Minn.?????
How about a little native son...Bob Dylan...electric.....Highway 61 Revisited....with Al Kooper & Mike Bloomfield.
Wear your groovy strap/watch combo & crank up Like a Rolling Stone loud.
