L'attente est toujours plus longue quand on trépigne d'impatience! LOL (time feels longer when you wait for something you like)

Et voilà ...

I'll not use the second strap holder as I don't need it and it allows to have few millimeters more to achieve a fairly good fitting.

 

With time the end of the strap without buckle will take place smoothly.

 

 

The color matches perfectly le "vert de gris" (bronze oxydation) and the Bronze color of the stitch is PER-FECT !!

 

 

The feeling is great as it's not stiff at all but looks very solid and durable.

 

 

Once again I'd like to thank Phizzy my generous donnator.

That looks so much better than I was expecting, glad you're happy with it.

 

Can you get the floating keeper in front of the fixed one?

Looks great! Maybe you just need to get the buckle in color matching the case now. :D This is the problem with collection straps you have to get a huge amount of buckles too!

 

 

(what is your wrist size btw?)

Strap was around 125 / 80 iirc.

The fixed keeper could have done with being 5mm nearer the buckle and the strap an extra 5 or 10mm longer but it looks great. Will be good to see it after some heavy use.

Strap is 85/120. I can use at least 2 more cm...

 

Ideal size would be 90/135, I guess.

 

For the buckle, Bronze is attracting, but coin buckle are even more attractive altough expensive....
