unorthodox is the word that pops to my mind. But, it definitely matches extremely well and by far, the best pairing I've seen on a LM101! Absolutely well done!


And yes, I could feel you buddy. A 'refreshed' look nowadays seems almost certain to set us back a couple of months. But it might be a good thing in some way. Just imagine if the waiting time is 1-2 weeks, by the time of 3 months, we might have a dozen of straps for each of our watch. LOL.

New shoes for my MB&F Legacy Machine 101

Now with a funky blue MB&F strap! Just collected it from my local MB&F AD. These days ordering a strap takes months lol Now that's the spirit of MB&F! Cool and fun even on a classically designed Legacy Machine Some pics to share Cheers Robin Visited L...

Thanks for your kind comments. The blue does make the watch pop out lol! Cheers Robin

Totally! That's why I chose this color instead of Navy Blue

 
 By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : December 31st, 2014-02:40
Or grey Something totally different and fun :) Cheers Robin

Not bad combination, my friend.

As for the TT Geophysic, you are on a slippery slope... You are too often seeing it, it will end on your wrist, one day! ;) Best, Nicolas

The Platinum one is especially dangerous my friend

 
 By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : December 31st, 2014-02:41
Looks discreet but once on the wrist the magic happens! My mbf with the blue strap is helping me deflect the Platinum geo away! :) Cheers Robin ...  

This one especially!

The case, lugs and weight plus that iconic Geophysic dial... arghhhh.... Cheers Ronald Robin

Robin, it looks very good ...

if you match it with casual jeans or a dedicated "fancy" outfit. Hope you donĀ“t mind if I ask one question about something that came to my mind when I saw your post. What was the motivation to spice up the piece after such a short time of ownership? Maybe... 

Glad you like it too Oliver!

 
 By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : December 31st, 2014-02:43
Oh I ordered the 2nd strap when I took delivery of this watch few months back. Just that the 2nd strap took a long time to arrive lol (maybe because mine is an extra short strap and in a less common color than black, grey or brown) Now I have 2 straps to ... 

Robin, thanks for your honest answer!

Cordially, Oliver

Wow!

Exciting and eye-catching strap for an equally exciting watch. I like it a lot Robin, great choice! I wonder how it would look peeking out from under the cuff of an indigo coloured suit ;) Hope 2015 finds you in good health and happiness, Colton

Happy New Year to you too Colton!

Indeed, this MBF with the "electric blue" strap has "become" a new love for me! I already love it but I must admit I love it more with the new strap now! Cheers robin

Totally Robin [nt]

Thanks Ovi!

Happy New Year my friend! cheers robin

A nice and funky move Robin :) [nt]

Hehe. I like my MBF funky :)

 
 By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : January 1st, 2015-07:46
Thanks Mark and have a blessed 2015! cheers robin

Why not? But I find it a bit too "light" for the watch

 
 By: foversta : January 1st, 2015-12:52
With time, it will become darker and better... Fx

:) thanks Fx

 
 By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : January 2nd, 2015-21:42
I think so too :) Will share more pics as the strap ages Cheers Robin

Nicely done Robin!

I think it perfectly suits the playfulness of the LM 101. If we can't have fun with our watches then we are missing out. :) I have yet to come across one in the metal, probably for the better as I'm not sure I will be able to resist. Have a great 2015! fe... 

Happy 2015 Fernando!

 
 By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : January 2nd, 2015-21:42
Thank you. Having fun with our watches is the greatest joy we have :) Cheers Robin

Was fortunate to get to try one on this past week...

while travelling in San Diego. Definitely my favorite MB&F, and the "Kari touch" is clearly visible when turning the watch over. Looks good on the blue strap. Darren

Glad you like the LM 101 too Darren

It's also my fav mbf :) Cheers Robin
