I have one of the ice blue inbound. Any thoughts on what strap that would look good on it?

Essray for the Platona with the brown bezel and the brown sub dial rings, a dark brown croco leather strap could look great on it.
I know that ZicZac Leather has suitable leather straps which will fit the clasp and the links of the brracelet.

Where did you buy the gen parts from?

Thanks!

Here and there, on eBay, Chrono24, m2m, it’s labor to source for parts at correct price, on some months I saw prices growing for and less offering.

Because they are designed for a different case construction, these genuine Rolex white gold bezels require a major watchmaking trick to install and preserve water resistance. But it is worth it when you see their shine on your now very expensive Daytona Franken:

May I ask what the watchmaking trick you are referring to is? I am about to install a gen yellow gold bezel onto my ARF yellow gold, green dial Daytona.

Thanks, in advance!
