Picked up this Skyflake a few weeks ago at a GS boutique. Absolutely in love with it, but I’m hoping to feminise it a bit. Any specific materials, colours, or bands that you all would recommend? Thank you!
The 313 looks great on that pink strap! Where's that strap from, if i can ask?
Thank you so much! It’s from APB concepts. All my high end leather straps are from there.
I've got a burgundy faux Croc leather that would give this some interesting contrast... Barton Bands I believe, comfy but not crazy expensive.
Yes it sounds like an odd combo, but I bet it would work.
I got a strap from an awesome Etsy seller called Seventhcreation for my Shunbun. They make each order custom, so you can really get what you want. Here's a pic of what I got.
Maybe something like this would be nice for your skyflake (I know the description says it's for a Moonswatch, but I talked to the seller over whatsapp before making my order and he guided me through the process of getting what I wanted, and it seems like he can kind of do whatever colors and materials you want).
Good luck!
I think something textured and lighter shade would perfectly fit your need. Blue straps depend on personal prefer, some people don't like to mix 2 different shades of blue, some like it, I'm somewhere in between haha. Hope you can find something you like. 🙏

Light grey suede?
Like this?
Dude total chick watch

It looks hot as hell though.
Baby blue with a flick of white.
He's overpriced and the quality is average. I don't understand why people like this guy. I went to his actual shop and he's one arrogant gentleman
White suede
A light tan
No band recs, but I have the same watch and love it dearly
Anything light color really.
I have the same Skyflake. I went with a light grey French crocodile, and the pale blue dial really stood out.
Just look at this guys stuff. I got one from him and it's amazing. He would have some awesome options for these colors.

This would look sweet!
Vintage Light Pink Stingray Leather Watch Strap
That delicate light blue dial demands a light coloured strap to bring out the dial, and not overpower it.
Browse that shop, plenty on offer!
I would think suede, ostrich or stingray would tone it to less masculine. In my opinion, a well suited complementary strap such as something peach or coral would soften the blue “masculinity” of the watch.
TBH, I just love playing with colors, and wear Shunbun on a lilac strap, and my Hanami on a lighter pink strap. You can check them out in my profile. I don’t really consider it masculine or feminine though.
