Now my interpretation for this watch has changed 100%, the new strap is so classy it makes the watch sporty yet dressy at the same time.

I just came back from the AP dealer, they were amazed that I've changed the AP strap for a custom one.

At first they took it as an insult, that being AP is a prestigious watch maker and I got the watch within 3 days and changed the strap quickly. I left the watch at 5:00pm and went for 10 minutes to enjoy my espresso frappuchino at the closest starbucks because I felt like I was about to fall asleep after being invited at a relatives house for lunch.

I arrived at AP boutique and to my amusement, I was expecting negative remarks however they said that it looks so much better than the closest alternative which is the ROO safari, the vintage strap really adds a "classic" touch to the watch's sporty flare.

Overall I am highly satisfied with the new strap, it really brought the watch from being very sporty to an exec feel. I thanked them and left, before leaving they said I was the first to have the guts to change and fiddle with an AP, what popped into my mind is that I have a certain style I go with and I like to add my small changes to anything I own.

I am very pleased with the strap, since its a 10 quantity run which is very rare I would encounter anyone with the exact same strap on an offshore. The strap is alligator made to look old via weathering process, its made in Italy and got it through an American Company.

I hope you guys like it,

Attention to detail, superb really astonished here:



I love Vintage, ever since I've seen the IWC big pilot I wanted to do the same vintage look on the AP like the ones on the PAM's as well.

Very, very, nice my friend - excellent taste as always! I especially enjoy your narratives for some reason - always informative and very matter-of-fact. Wear it in the best of health and I look forward to hearing about your summer travels
