Supporting MAX VERSTAPPEN today
Max Verstappen scored the second time on Friday during the first free practice session for the Grand Prix of Belgium. The Dutchman of Red Bull Racing only had to accept Sebastian Vettel from Ferrari.
Verstappen set a time of 1.44,509 on the circuit of Spa-Francorchamps about twenty minutes before the end of the session and was only slightly slower than Vettel (1.44,358).
wearing ORANGE STRAP ON AT
[b]Bas,
Always a treat to see the Orange strap make an appearance. Love it !
Why oh why IWC did not make a few more color options for that proprietary strap is beyond me. If memory serves me, wasn't that strap color released to celebrate a Dutch sporting event with a limited distribution area ?
The Orange along with perhaps a yellow and grey would have been a couple of good choices that would have paired well with the AT3568 white, black, blue dials.
Thanks again Bas for bringing out the Orange. That strap would have also been the perfect mate to those lucky enough to have the rare 3568
" Fanta " . Can you picture it ?[/b]

Yes correct.
never saw an Orange strap on the Fanta IW3568 (should have been issued with it)
but orange looks best on my Blue dial (with orange second hand) IW3767 !!!
cheers!
Agree Bas. The Orange strap really makes that sub-dial hand POP and, also agree the Orange should have been the OEM strap for the Fanta. That is why a yellow strap option would have done the same for the white dial "seconds" hand with it's yellow arrow end. In addition, a yellow strap would have been a great match for the black/yellow ( bumblebee ) models. And a medium Gray...perfect neutral color for ALL 3568 models.
Bas...tell IWC we want more color choices for our 3568's. They will listen. You are the AT King !!
Cheers,
Andy
LOL and hear hear! Great watches Bas!!!
Kind regards,
Bob
