Watchlords

The nostalgia for fine mechanical watchmaking never gets old — of which the VMF 1837 movement with chronograph module and handsomely designed and finely crafted dial are splendid examples cased up in the graphite coated carbon fiber case — a strikingly elegant and durable representation of modern haute watchmaking that enhances quite an impressive entry overall to the top tier.

Pardon me if I'm a little fucked-up in the head, but isn't Hermes known for their fabric straps and shit? What's with the fucking rubber??

Indeed, as I noted above - not crazy about the strap from a luxury house who made their bones on fine leather goods and textiles but it wouldn't be a deal killer for me.
