I think you've colour matched the dial very nicely Jeff , well done.
I'm surprised to hear that the Chronomatic gets the job for 'casual friday' - seeing as its the grand old father of our beloved Cal.11/12/14 &15 range i would have thought it was reserved for formal occasions.
By the way, what kind of strap would have come on this watch originally - black/blue ? leather/corfam ?
Cheers - Darren

: I was in Boston a couple of weeks ago, and visited my favorite
: local watch shop . . . European Watch Company .

: European Watch Company is a relatively small store and has a
: fantastic selection of watches . . . all the high-end brands
: that you would expect (Patek, Breguet, IWC, Blancpain, etc.),
: and always some interesting vintage watches, covering a nice
: range of high-end and more affordable brands (Omega, Heuer,
: Breitling, etc.). The store is on Newbury Street (Boston's
: equivalent of Fifth Avenue or Rodeo Drive), so spouses and kids
: will also be happy with this neighborhood, as a shopping or
: dining destination.

: Perhaps the most exceptional offerings from European Watch Company
: are the straps . . . an amazing selection of alligator,
: crocodile, leather, cordovan and other "exotics".

: So how do you like the "Paintless Wonder", with its new
: "Tabac" strap (cordovan)? It's probably not for
: everyone, but was fun this past "Casual Friday".

: Jeff
