Hi

I have a two tone cockpit with a blue face.

Im thinking about putting a blue croc strap on it, do you guys think it will be too much?
Currently coming from a tan/gold croc strap?

Thanks

George

It wouldn't look bad I think, but with a black strap it would be more versatile IMHO.

Do you have a picture of the current watch config?

Personally I think the blue will suit it far more than the tan. In fact I think it's the ideal combination.

Try using the Configurator on the Breitling website to get an idea of what it will look like.

Not sure the black would work with the blue and gold hhmm.

Blue looks good on the configurator :)

Believe or not, in the pic attached my strap is the gold/tan colour, I just ruined it trying to dry it out after dropping it in the fish tank whoops. The dark brown looks good too I think.

I recieved a tag heuer grand carrera for my birthday, this has a dark brown strap so I though the blue on the cockpit would change my collection up a bit. I also have a full SS Tag Link.

Just thought i would get some other peoples views.

I will be getting a deployment clasp too, to help minimise the wear on the strap. I got enough birthday money to buy both :)

I have a blue dial Complications 19 that switches between bracelet and blue croc and the croc works extremely well. I think it's a great combination.

As pic 3 illustrates blue on blue combines very well IMO. Personally I think brown/tan is better than black also :thumbsup:

I think blue on blue works great.

I have a blue 24hr Chrono-Matic that's either on the original combo (OEM blue calf), or on a ABP custom blue croco.
