SMP Ti on Rubber
Not the best pic, and the dial is out of focus for some reason, but you get the idea.

This is my true beater watch.
Seven years old and I can honestly say that it has been though hell and back with me. Still ticks like a champ.

Nice watch SLR, I like the Ti - rubber combo. Does it comes with a Ti buckle as well?

Nice combo Chip, I have the same watch (w/black dial) coming my way very very soon. Can you please tell me what is the part/model # for the rubber strap? Thanks.

He wants WAY too much.
I got a guy that sells it for about way less than 200 including the buckle.

I think CJ bought his strap for his Sea Master from here for the same price but the buckle was few bucks more.

That is a great looking watch Chip
I'm hoping to get the same style dial but with the GMT function. The seller has put me on hold
Anyway, I will get one sooner or later.
