Yes, the summer is closing in and this year I really long for the summer vacation! One thing I used to do a lot was playing with straps, especially during summer.
In 2004 when my Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Compressor Memovox was new I ordered a bunch of straps special made by Jaeger-LeCoultre.
Back then it was not very common here in Sweden and it took forever to get the straps, but I really enjoyed the outcome!

The original brown crocodile strap is great, but not as fun as the blue, orange or red on a sunny summers day! It completely changes the look of the watch.
The black rubber strap is of course the safe choice for the beach…
Nowadays, playing with straps is a common game and strap options are much more available. Maybe it’s time to get some new straps for this summer…?!
