New 'shoes' for the 312...

Hey all!
I wanted a more 'spring/summer' type strap for the upcoming months, so I decided on this one: Golden Brown semi-matte alligator. I always, ALWAYS remove the second floating keeper, as I never have enough extra strap length to warrant keeping it on.
Here are 'da pics!

It's the strap that comes with the 320. It's called in the catalog as antique brown gator, but is actually more a deep burgundy.
