...if you've had low end champagne, but never the good stuff, you probably think champagne isn't very good. But once you've had the good stuff, your eyes open and you realize it bears no relation to the stuff you've tried in the past.

I've always been a strap guy for the most part, only having had experience with Citizen bracelets on pretty low end watches. But now, having experienced the wonderful comfort of the bracelets on my Breguet and my SubC, my eyes are open...

Plus, the whole matching strap color to belt and shoes becomes moot. So, I officially am open to both leather straps and high quality bracelets for future watches.
