Burgundy on gold is always a winner! Thank you for sharing Nick. These straps do begin life a little on the stiff side but soon break in. We put together a blog post which might help you with breaking the strap in a little quicker - https://www.watchobsession.co.uk/blogs/watchobsession-blog/how-to-soften-a-leather-watch-strap
“Bought a Franck Muller replacement alligator strap £400-
After 2 hours fell apart.
Bought the "Rios1931 LOUISIANA Alligator-Embossed Leather Watch Strap in BURGUNDY" £32-?
Put the Franck Muller buckle on it (Very Important as a replacement FM steel buckle is £££).
Rios watch strap is a better quality product, quick service. Enough said.”
