Introduction
The Audemars Piguet Star Wheel 25720 is already a captivating piece, defined by its wandering hours, elegant profile and unmistakable character. Pairing it with the right leather strap can shift its entire personality, highlighting different textures, moods and levels of refinement. Below is a concise look at how the watch transforms when matched with four distinctive straps.
Special note: This piece isn’t from my personal collection; it belongs to my friend @wernerwatches
Taupe Buttero Slim
The Taupe Buttero strap gives the Star Wheel a calm, understated elegance. Its smooth finish and muted tone keep the focus on the dial while adding a modern, minimalist touch. This pairing is ideal for those who want refinement without drawing attention to the strap itself.
Grigio Pueblo Slim
With the Grigio Pueblo strap, the watch takes on a more rugged, artisanal presence. The matte, textured leather introduces a sense of depth and character, contrasting nicely with the crisp technicality of the wandering-hour discs. It’s a combination that feels both contemporary and handcrafted.
Green Waxy Slim
The Green Waxy strap injects a bold, organic energy into the Star Wheel. The rich green tone creates a dynamic contrast against the case and dial, making the whole watch feel more expressive. It’s a striking choice for anyone who appreciates a distinctive colour without slipping into excess.
Mocha Babele Slim
The Mocha Babele strap offers pattern and warmth in equal measure. Its intricate grain and deep brown hue give the Star Wheel a sophisticated vintage edge, enriching the watch with texture and personality. This pairing leans classic, yet still feels fresh and refined.
Summary
Each one of these straps brings out a different facet of the Audemars Piguet Star Wheel. The Taupe Buttero emphasises clean elegance, while the Grigio Pueblo adds artisanal texture. The Green Waxy introduces a vibrant, expressive character, and the Mocha Babele offers warm sophistication with a vintage touch. Together, they show just how versatile the Star Wheel can be when paired with thoughtfully chosen leather straps.
