Ok here it goes,....

After spending my whole morning looking at all the amazing straps, and playing with one of them the VERNON, i finally decided to take a quick pics to show the amazing strap.

because of the new arrival of the straps, i did not do any job work at all in the morning, and most of the afternoon, so thank you Peter for ruining my day :p hehehheeh

Knock knock.....one of my office boy, bring me a yellow and bright package as i was replying peter's email about the arrival time of the package, he sent it yesterday afternoon. the package arrived sooner that we expected.

wooohoooo, i just know that must be it :)

as i open the well packaged packaging, i found 4 items inside the packaging.

eanie meanie mini moe...voilaaaa i found the Vernon

it was love at the first sight, the color is GREAT, the texture is FANTASTIC, soft and smooth. The thickness is FABULOUS, the feel is not too hard and not too soft, it is just RIGHT.

Here's the name behind the strap

The serial number

The keeper
i asked peter to make a single keeper for this one, and i must say it create a masculine look to the leather.

I can just tell the amount of time, work and attention that Peter put in his strap making

Here's more pic of the whole set. You should BUY and TRY GUNNY Strap, and i can assure you that you will join me as a satisfied customer :)

Pic of the Strap with the buckle
p7220204exp9.jpg


The buckle is smaller, i took it from the old strap, i cant wait to get a correct size buckle, so for the mean time, this one will do, and it doesnt seem to bother me or the leather :)

Once again, i'm really happy with the STRAP, i've been wearing it the whole day, and showing it off to all the people at my office, hahahaha. so THANK YOU PETER, you can add me as your satisfied customer.


More review and story will follow :)

Now here's the 253 on Vernon strap

p7220177ejm1.jpg

I think the strap is taking the watch to another level, hehehe. not exaggerating, but this is a big boost up, compare to the old strap it was on.

wrist shot
p7220179eyk2.jpg

feels a bit off at first because i'm not used to such a thick strap, but now it will wear it every single day

probably brushed buckles is more suitable for this combo, but this will do for now

the keeper hold the extra length in place - perfect fit. for the next one, i'll probably will ask a longer one :)
