I thought I'd make it hopefully a bit more interesting by starting this with a quiz on the black Santoni straps, so here it goes:

Please name which of these straps are Santoni straps by indicating the number in red:

I would guess number 4. If I am wrong then what's the point if I can't tell the difference. LOL

Really can't tell. 4 and 5 should be the most comfortable, thanks to the smaller scales and finer thickness, on the edges of the segments.

Fun post :)

It's a guess 1 & 3. Is there a prize of a Santoni strap of winners choice?

For me 3 and 4.

When I look through the pin holes I see a little bit of orange that is distinctive of the inner surface.

Hi Shing,

Nice idea, this is fun!!!

I go with number 3.

Omar Khayyám (Persia XI-XII Century) offered that Time should not only be measured in length but also in width due to the intrinsic difference between a minute or other depending on what is happening to the beholder... I wonder how a watch would look like...

My choice would be nr 3 as it seems to be a bit 'light-black'.

Kind regards,

Clemens

Hi Shing,

I knew you would address my request with entertainment. How fun !

I think it could be 3 and maybe 4 ( looks like it has a bit of blue in the grain )

At this point all but number 2 have been guessed so the contrarian in me wants to guess 2 but I think it's 3.

Best regards,
David
