New Laco Springtime Vintage Handmade Strap with Photo's, Opinions Please!

[pavel36]

Fantastic photos, and it's a breathtaking strap - really! It's really adds a vintage aura to the watch. What's it feel like?

It feels awesome... The strap is nice and the color is not that light... First two pictures are taken under a lamp so the white balance is off...the second couple of pictures represent the colors more accurately.

Maybe the leather was caressed by a fifty virgins for a year before it was turned into straps?

Only 50 virgins? Seriously? If it had been caressed by a hundred virgins, maybe I could concede the point. But I've seen 50 virgin straps WAY cheaper than this.

I assume the "vintage" bit in the strap is because it is made from Vintage Leather, and not just "vintage-look", am I correct?

...I don't know...it looks vintage, but the only markings on it is that is hand made...
there are some stains on the leather, but again, not sure if they are authentic or man made to make it look vintage...
I would say that it is a hand made leather strap made look vintage.. but that is my personal opinion.. I own the strap, but by no means a leather expert.
..though the price of the strap suggests that the leather may be vintage...
I guess i am not being much help here :)

its beautiful strap, feel good on the skin but way too much to buy it on its own!!! you can custom make similar strap for 1/3 of the price. Its nice to get it free with the watch though

I just pulled the trigger on a Dortmund springtime special -- pics to come when it arrives.

I am getting The Munster... Should have it today or tomorrow

I will take some pictures when it arrives :)

Btw, prior ordering the watch from laco I ordered tHe Bremen model from milwatches.com... Bremen is almost identical to the Munster, but was selling there for almost 200 euros less than the latter... I got refunded the very next day as they were out if stock. I am actually happy with the way it worked out ...

...

and here it is.. the fastest delivery in my experience.. Shipped from Germany yesterday, I had it this afternoon in Canada.. way to go Laco...

...and there´s a Paderborn on the way in my direction.
A bit of an impulse-thing, so I hope I wont regret it...

Regret a Laco B-Uhr? I suppose stranger things have happened.

But, it's not likely!

I'm certainly envious of everyone who managed to get in on this deal. I do have the Miyota Classic on its way to me as a pretty decent consolation purchase.

As KB184 requested: wrist shots please!
