    Actually, I've a few pairs of their shoes, but I just found one Santoni strap in the special size for deployant buckles. So I had to get it, of course.

    One or two other forum members thought the dark brown highlights actually accent the ardoise dial better.

    What do you think?

    Michael - first, that's an amazing watch. As for the strap, I think it looks great. Both shades of brown are winners in my opinion. Enjoy your new look.

    How do you like Santoni's shoes?

    That is a stunning watch... And the Santoni strap only adds to the beauty of it.

    Congratulations, Michael!

    Pictures don't do it justice. I held the combination in my hands. I thought it really looks sharp.

    The Santoni straps are fabulous. On this particular one to me the dark accents are a bit too strong and thick, I would have tried to get another one that looks a bit more balanced, more in line with the character of the watch.

    Kind regards,
    Paul
