Hi guys,

I just bought a AP band for my new Tour Auto (pics soon) and I was wonderingif you would give me a green light on this colour combination for the Volcano:

When I first saw this image I felt in love, but I really don't know now if it would be nice, since the dial is black....


Thanks!!!

Hi Fitipaldi, I have seen your pictures before, they are really beautiful, and the blackhorn is a perfect match (already ordered just because your pics). But the picture I posted show a dark brown hornback with orange stitching, available at AP Bands.

Thank you for the help!

@ Bonesey - I think Fitipaldi's strap is a AP Band one, so, not a rep.

Just one more question regarding the Volcano from Fitipaldi... did you relume the dial of your volcano? the numbers seems to be filled with lume... or maybe the pic gave me that impression...

BUT, regarding the strap, any comment about the colour?! It could be good for a change, maybe for when I use brown shoes....

My strap is from HkTan. My watch has lume, orange lume in fact.

About the strap of your pic, I think it is black but the light gives it a brown look. If it's actually brown it will not match the watch. I would never put a brown strap with orange stitching to my beloved Volcano.

Do you have some lume shots? I almost had mine lumed by Uwe, but I've changed my mind when I read that the gen hasn't. As I put the double AR and the gen doesn't has, I could have lumed, but I tought that the orange tone could be different, and I can see by yours that I was wrong...

I think I'll give it a try then... By the way it looks it seems like the Panerai buckle...

I was waiting to received my Chronopassion and my Silver Themes from Francisco-Uwe to show you my "mod deployment", but I had my camera and I took some shoots:

Once I will receive my watches I will take some pics to show you how I did the fit.
