Which strap colour goes with what

Crimson — for evenings

Deep red pairs with black, cream and camel, and lifts a simple white shirt. It is the strap people ask about.

Navy — for every day

The most versatile colour: denim, grey tailoring, white linen. If you own one strap, make it this one.

Black — for the city

All-black with a black dial is quiet and sharp. Wear it with dark knitwear, suits and monochrome outfits.

White — for summer

Clean and bright on tanned skin, with linen, pastels and swimwear. Hand-wash it now and then to keep it crisp.
