Default Need opinion on a new watch band for Chopard Happy watch..
Ok I just got a new watch band. I wanted red but got this one for now. I will definitely order a shiny red one. But how does this look compared to the blue one this watch came with? I dont need this watch to be dressy, I already have a dressy watch. Opinions please?

BEFORE:


AFTER, sort of a periwinkle croc


Looks nice with jeans though...

I think its pretty, maybe slightly more causal as opposed to the darker band but you said you don't need it to be dressy

L, I like the new band even better than the original! Nice choice. Red croc sounds great, too. I am thinking of a dark pink croc band for my H watch.

I really like the periwinkle band. It makes the watch look whimsical.

Hands down, the second one. I have the round face medium Happy Sport with a stainless steel bracelet and often change it up between a fire engine red croc and a blue rubber strap. The bands are addictive.

I like both, but the second has a lighter, dressed down, fun look... especially if you plan to wear it casually, I'd definitely go for the "after."
