Thanks all for the comments.

I borrowed the brown strap from my C1 and its black backup strap as well. Brown works, I think. Not sure on the black.

That’s better… I had a feeling this C60 gunmetal prototype needed the matching bracelet to really complete the package :thumbup:

Looks and feels pretty stunning to me now :D

EDIT: Realised the date was set incorrectly, so I’ve added another photo and from another angle :lol:

The bracelet really does complete the watch. That looks fantastic!

I like both and both work well.
I prefer the black to be honest ;)

Depending on the incidence of light, it can no longer be seen - and not with the naked eye anyway. Operation succeeded and the owner is happy :-)

How many units for a bespoke order?
I’d likely participate in a special order batch of the red sapphire C60 if it were organized. I don’t have the time currently to shepherd such a project along.

If a special order batch for the red sapphire was to happen I'd be interested as well.
I would really be interested also if this was a possibility 👍

The brown strap match great with the dial - the black one, not my favorite combination

The bracelet specially made for me for the C7 Rapide Prototype has just been sent. The people from bocane.com were so kind and took some pictures before packing....

That looks pretty special.
Prototypes deserve to be sat on something a bit special.
(Says the guy who has his latest one sat on a black hybrid strap :? )

That looks fantastic! Can’t wait to see it on your C7. It would compliment my C65 AMGT perfectly.

There it is: the new two-tone leather strap for the C7 Prototype from Bocane.com, based on the CW strap that is no longer available.

At first glance it looks like the original, but the small punctures are missing 😉

What do you think?

^^^ Looks pretty good!
I’ve never tried to make one with this style of clasp, but you are giving me all sorts of ideas…
Enjoy, and keep well,
