FRIDAY CHALLENGE - A WATCH AND AN OUTFIT

@DavidLane made this strap with 1950s leather salvaged from French ammo pouches. It is a perfect match for this 1951 Tissot that I purchased at auction recently.

I sold it and this is how it looks after restoration. A bit too flashy maybe.

Added a new vintage to the collection recently. Not much of a fan of contemporary Girard Perregaux, as it seems to be only the Laureato and nothing more, except for their weird six-figure price tag watches with turning planets on them and whatnot. But the pre-1980s stuff is pretty cool, classy looking, and well made.
