Not the obvious strap choice for a Cornes de Vache. Yay or nay?

It is the Sahsra Wind that we feel today. Sadly, only for today. However: a daring combo!,👍

I gotta go Yah!

Well done my friend. I like your style!

Looks great!

This watch would look great on any strap.

I personally love pairing a classic style watch with a nato. So 👍👍👍.

Personally

I'd rock on a nubuck or gator. You rock your platinum beast however you like. It looks good!

Gotta agree with the crowd...

…there’s not a strap around that’s gonna diminish the perfection of this watch.

For me a clear yay!

Love how it changes the vibe and one could call it a modern officer’s watch in this setup 👌🏻👍🏻

totally agree +++

I love this combo! Very unusual and cool!

I find it interesting to see that on the Nato, the retro side of the CdV is highlighted.

On a gator strap, it’s the elegant, classic manual chrono vibe that stands out.

Indeed it’s totally unexpected in a good way!

 
 By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : April 7th, 2024-14:24

Big Yay! Looks awesome!

I love the watch! I’ve just never been a fan

 
 By: edtonkin : April 6th, 2024-19:04
of any fabric NATO like this that folds back and such. The just can’t get to like that look. So I’m not really one to comment. But with that watch, you’d really have to work very hard to make it look close to bad. Enjoy your weekend!

Nothing wrong with not liking the Natos.

And yes, the Cornes de Vache to me is one of the best VC of recent times, and close to a perfect watch for many different occasions. Thanks for chiming in, dear Ed.

Definite yes from me

 
 By: imrootbeer7 : April 6th, 2024-19:34
But then I’ve strapped a nato on everything including a Rolex Day Date!!

Way to go 😄

 
 By: mrds : April 7th, 2024-14:05
You have a pic of the DD?

Yes indeed!!

Tops!

 
 By: amanico : April 8th, 2024-06:07

What a look!!

 
 By: mrds : April 8th, 2024-10:25

+1

 
 By: amanico : April 8th, 2024-13:51

Thank you 🙏

 
 By: mrds : April 7th, 2024-14:06

Huge YES !

 
 By: bsandovalb : April 6th, 2024-20:32
but I am biased.. as I LOVE dressy pieces on Natos ...  

LOL!

 
 By: amanico : April 7th, 2024-18:28

I fully agree 👍🏻

 
 By: mrds : April 7th, 2024-14:11
I‘ve been wearing it on a grey gator for years and will surely put it back on after a couple of months. Just having some fun here…

Gorgeous yet subdued

 
 By: Gelato Monster : April 7th, 2024-03:47
I believe you can be more daring yet maintain her sublime aristocratic nuance

What do you have in mind?

 
 By: mrds : April 7th, 2024-14:13
I thought about navy, although this is probably not daring either.

Hmmmm…. You‘ve got me thinking, here.

 
 By: mrds : April 7th, 2024-19:44
I may not be the guy pulling off purple, but I‘ll try and stretch!

🙂you will be awesome

Looks amazing on that strap.

Beautiful piece!

 
 By: Eikþyrnir : April 8th, 2024-18:23
Classic and lovely!

Love your sense of adventure!

 
 By: OldFashionedMatt : April 8th, 2024-20:55
While I would prefer a suede or nubuck, it’s so cool you’re trying something out of the ordinary!

Thank you Matt 🙏

 
 By: mrds : April 8th, 2024-22:02
It’s just a strap, after all, no need to be too serious about it. I like to have some fun, sometimes.

Yay or nay

 
 By: derstowe2 : April 22nd, 2024-19:25
A late opinion, but ever so humble: Nay. The NATO contraption detracts from the CDV's beauty.

Thank you derstowe2 for chiming in.

 
 By: mrds : April 25th, 2024-09:37
I can fully relate to your point. It is an exceptionally beautiful watch. On the Nato, it shows a quite different side.
