Update: I have been wearing the above combination 1 or 2 times, and it looks nice, but the color of the original strap is much better i.m.h.o. So now the Alligator doesn't get wrist-time anymore, and that's a shame because it is such a nice strap. But I found a solution, hopefully I'll be able to present the solution before the end of this week!

Maybe that strap would look better on the Aviator?Hans wrote:Update: I have been wearing the above combination 1 or 2 times, and it looks nice, but the color of the original strap is much better i.m.h.o.

Yeah, I love that strap on the Aviator. I didn't think I would, but I do.Hans wrote:...but the current CW-strap is perfect: matte black leather, feels very soft...

Let me present to you the new destination for the black alligator:
As expected, the black Malvern is a beauty, and the Hadley Roma goes very well with it! The original stap is a genuine leather one with croco-print and to be honest, it looks almost as good as the Hadley!
To my surprise I noticed that I never did a complete review of the C5 Malvern, I only posted some pics in the beginning (http://www.christopherwardforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=2); now that I have both the black and the white Malvern, I'll plan a review (might be interesting for new members), the Malvern deserves it!

Wow, that's pretty sharp looking.

I mentioned this before, but don't you agree that Chris should get new product-photos for the watches presented on the CW-website? Let's compare my pic (on top) with a pic on the CW-website (bottom):
I'm just a simple amateur-photographer, but I think mine is better, and the black C5 is not flattered with the picture on the website!

I completely agree. I have said it before on this forum, and I am pretty sure I have mentioned it to Chris, that the photos on his site just don't do the watches justice. I seriously doubt I would have bought my C5 based on the pictures on his site. It was a review at timezone that DavidM1 posted with some great photos that sold me on the watch.
