Picked mine up last week..,here are a few shots as promised with the 1970s Silverstone strap
^ Nice pics! Love this one:
Had the camera out today and taken a few shots of my Red Monaco.
Looks good lined up with the Steve McQueen.
Tried the bracelet on also and think it looks stunning.
First 2 photos are in natural light.
Next 3 I have taken the liberty of adding some filters.
Agree it looks good. I haven't worn my Monaco on a bracelet for a long time, but you've inspired me to dig it out.
I'm interested why you don't wear your bracelet much David. Is it the bling factor?
I remember the first time I ever saw it in a dealer I had the reaction of "wow.. Thats full on"
That was about 10 years ago now and I am a bit older and I suppose my tastes , or lack of it as some may say, means that I don't mind it. In fact I think it brings most Monaco's to life.
I would be interested in seeing any new Bracelet which has been rumoured on the forum.
On the 40th Birthday we had a group of 4 or 5 new straps so maybe for the 50th we will see a new bracelet, here's hoping.
Yes, it was a bit bling. I think I then stored it away somewhere and now need to dig out a couple of spare links and then have those fitted before I could wear it again.

It's probably less bling than the Autavia 3-row grain of rice bracelet (or at least about the same), so I'll find it over the weekend and give it another try!
