\u201cThe aesthetic quality of a strap should match each fine timepiece, and the Jean Rousseau straps are delivering on that requirement.\u201d<\/h3>\n<\/blockquote>\n

I have been interested in watches since I was a teenager but I waited to be in my early thirties to explore fine timepieces. At that time, a horological journey was rather easy: there were no overhyped timepieces and I had access to almost every watch I was interested in.\u00a0What drives my passion for watches is mainly the aesthetics, a bit more than the technology: I believe that a fine timepiece can be a wonderful expression of one\u2019s personality. The key to find the right watch is to know what you like, not be driven by external opinions. It is a combination of personality and individual style that influences the choice for a specific type of watch or model.<\/p>\n

I am a perfectionist. What connects with me is attention to every detail and the overall harmony. I want to enjoy the watch to the same degree when taking only a quick glance or exploring it with a loupe. Experimenting with various straps becomes a way to emphasize different aspects of the watch but in this case, customization is sometimes necessary.<\/p>\n

\n

Bespoke straps are very interesting for some key timepieces<\/h3>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Over the years I developed a special interest in Blancpain. But Blancpain frequently chooses non-typical strap dimensions for some key timepieces that leave owners with very few off-the-shelf solutions. Bespoke straps are then very interesting.<\/p>\n

The most important is that the quality, the look, the haptics of the strap match the aesthetic quality of the watch. Personally, I like Nato straps for multiple reasons: they offer an additional element of security, they support a casual look, they protect the lugs of the watch and they are comfortable to wear. On my quest to find high quality Nato straps I discovered Jean Rousseau. I was very intrigued by the design of the Jean Rousseau Nato straps and placed my first order.<\/p>\n

I like the variety of materials and styles offered, the opportunity of creating bespoke straps, the very friendly and competent customer support and most of all the very high quality. I need the watch straps to have a maximum thickness, a specific size of the holes and the buckle aperture. I also like the option to choose from different lining materials and colors. I was very pleased with the result, the requirements were matched and the aesthetic quality was excellent, as is the wearing comfort.<\/p>\n

Today, three other watchstraps are in the process of being created. The watches I ordered bespoke straps for are the core of my collection, every single one means a lot to me. They are the quintessential result of my horological journey over almost three decades. These are the watches I feel most closely attached to. I believe the aesthetic quality of a strap should match each fine timepiece, and the Jean Rousseau straps are delivering on that requirement.<\/p>\n
