The updated "Pasha de Cartier" is also interchangeable

Automatic movement. Stainless steel. Comes with an interchangeable alligator strap and stainless steel bracelet. 35mm diameter. 655,000 yen (excluding tax). For inquiries, please contact the Cartier Customer Service Center at 0120-301-757.
The Pasha, which enjoyed overwhelming popularity in the 1980s, has been redesigned and reintroduced this year. Elements such as the square railway track and the screw-down crown cover with chain are inherited from the classic model. Its 35mm diameter and modern design make it the perfect watch to share with your partner. The watch comes with both a bracelet and a strap, so you can enjoy changing them without having to purchase them separately.

Chopard Happy Sport with a casual rubber strap

Quartz movement. Stainless steel x D. Comes with two interchangeable rubber straps. Diameter 30mm. 485,000 yen (excluding tax). Inquiries: Chopard Japan Press Tel. 03-5524-8922
The three diamonds swaying on the dial will lift your spirits every time you look at the watch. By switching to a separately sold rubber strap in purple, anise green, or bright pink (a set of three for 74,000 yen excluding tax), you can create a completely different, more pop look. Not only the strap, but the buckle is also removable. The buckle can be removed by pulling out the hook (the pin that is inserted into the strap hole) from the back.

The Tag Heuer Formula 1 Lady can also be worn with a bracelet.

Quartz movement. Stainless steel x D. 32mm diameter. 23 yen (excluding tax). Leather strap sold separately. 1 yen (excluding tax). Inquiries: LVMH Watch & Jewelry Japan TAG Heuer Tel. 03-5635-7054
This is a ladies' model from the Tag Heuer Formula 1 collection. The mother-of-pearl dial and diamond bezel create a feminine look. The bracelet adds a modern touch, while the strap adds a classic touch. The 32mm model is available with four other leather strap colors in addition to red. The 35mm model also comes with eight leather strap colors, including pistachio green and orange, in addition to the five colors listed above. If you're looking for a wide variety to choose from, this is also recommended.
