Just a quicky!

Have shown my B-1 on:

1) Bracelet

2) Blue Shark Strap

3) Blue Galuchat (Stingray) Strap

What do you think?

Is the galuchat strap too dark?

I voted for the Galuchat strap. I think it looks incredible!!! the dark blue really goes with the dial!! You certainly have some great variations for your B1, all of which work very nicely!!
Some days I prefer the bracelet on my SA but others the Brown strap is my prefered choice, always nice having options!

I think the Galuchat strap does look pretty cool, and the blue shark definitely looks better on your blue dial B-1 than on Docs black one.....BUT, I think the bracelet is the best way to go with the B-1.

Thanks to all!

My choice is reflected in the poll (ish):

1st Bracelet - now completely refinished (by me) and back on the watch - looks cracking!

2nd Blue Shark - will keep exclusively for this watch - for occasional use.

3rd Blue Galuchat - agree it looks a little dark but will keep an eye open on a lighter blue one.

I would love a UTC like docs but reckon it would be hard for me to justify (who am I kidding) at that price.
