just got my 190 back from PASC (3 weeks!). they did a great job with the polishing watch is lnib. i just put this strap on, love the color but not sure if the polished buckle goes with it? perhaps brushed would set it off more?

not the most urgent of questions but would love to hear some opinions

I pretty much follow the factory principals of the buckle matching the head. So, i'd say leave it as it is. It's not my taste but i think it looks good

I agree with Baz on this one. The buckle has to match the head IMHO but it looks great the way it is don't change it!

Cheers

thanks guys,

that's usually my default also...buckle matching case. i guess the strap looking and feeling old and rustic made me question the choice of a shiny buckle. i will leave the polished on for now and save $$$ from buying a brushed buckle.

polished buckles eventually all turn into scratched up nasty buckles.
You might as well get a brushed buckle to save you the headaches

I make straps, and the color and tone of the leather says nothing but polished for me. It will make it look like its worth $200 more and also match your watch....just to let you know....my site is... www.DaLucaStraps.com.
