Blue C60 on Blue Rubber

Post by blowfish89 »

My 300th post here.
I need more practice - I couldn't resize the mesh (even after warm water), and I couldn't fit the C60 bracelet either. However, this is my latest doing and I'm happy with it - colorful and waterproof. I'll try again with the fitting and resizing after a couple of days, or go to the watch shop nearby. The mesh will fit plenty of my watches but I'll rethink whether its worth keeping the C60 bracelet. Whatever the case, the blue C60 is in my top 3 watches for sure.

The strap is from my Red Line quartz chronograph, which is now on a Tudor-style nato, and this strap was just lying around. I think it fits the C60 better than the original.

I think you're right there, it's a jolly good fit on the curves :thumbup:

Not for me.... Far too much blue, but then again, I find the blue C60 over bright even without a blue strap, so I'm hardly the best judge.

As always, if you like it, that is all that matters.

Not for me, but I think it looks good. The rubber straps will certainly take a beating and still look good. :thumbup:

Thanks everyone. The strap's blue is darker than the watch blue (and esp the bezel blue) so it doesn't appear too flashy - just casual. I will also be trying on the bracelet soon.

Not normally a fan of rubber, but that does look good.
