How to do a great watch a little more perfect>>>
When I got my bronze Dornblüth so did I ask for a golden contrast stitching and when I got the strap it was a little too
yellow for my taste. So I contact my friend MickeJ that made straps and ask if he could change the thread for me. I will give it a try he said and send me a pic of the threads he think will be fine. I got two straps to the watch so I say try both at the right and we will see what will works best.  Today I got the straps back and I will say I'm impressed of the work, I can't see he have open up the band and stitched it back together again.  The final result, a perfect match.

Thank you all, I like this watch more and more and the funny thing is I haven't looked at bronze before.
It's a nice looking metal and maybe when I feel comfortable with this I start looking at goldwatches.

Awesome change Jocke. I have a couple Nomos Horween Shell Cordovan straps that have about that contrast, slight but noticeable, and I love them. I was never a bronze guy til I tried on a Shinola bronze piece (pvd, not solid) and I kind of like it now. It was my "toe in the water" for YG as well.
