Strap choices for Ti Schumacher and CF Grand Prix

OEM Red rubber arrived thanks for Selin and great team at AP boutique in NYC.

As expected its a good shade of red that matches shade of red on Schumacher accents and the red on the GP dial. Have had these watches on OEM gators for a few years so want to live with them on rubber for a bit. Schumacher looks great on white and great on Red.

Grand prix to my eye is more fickle. Nothing perfect jumping out to me. The red I think is too much with the red on the dial. The white is pretty good and I think will try it on that for a bit. Also have OEM grey and black on hand.

Open to opinions on best strap for each one.

GP on red in sun. I think if the dial was all black the red would be better. Will try it out for a day and see if it sticks.

Love this. Do you have a part # for the red strap?

Here is back of packaging the Red 44mm strap came in. Call Clearwater on Monday. I believe they now also have Yellow and a bunch of colors. The rubber straps from 4-5 years ago were smoother. The newer red and white that I recent purchased have a subtle pebbled texture which I really like.

Thank you! This should work with the 26401 44mm, right?

Roxobox that shot is insane, I think you convinced me to move on from a 15450 I’ve been wanting to a new 15500 with the black dial! Beautiful!
