That's more choice than my little brain will ever be able to deal with.

If only you could get a baby blue strap with alcantara features, that would be amazing...

Nice Ash. Keeps the watch feeling fresh every time you swap the straps out.

You need 2no Bergen 1.3mm srewdrivers, 1no Bergen spring bar tool & unless you have very nimble fingers a pair of tweezers can help with the tiny threaded screw bar caps.

Very cool. I’m pretty new to this watch game, and definitely don’t have my first AP, but I’m curious, when you do a strap change on these, since the screws afix the bars, do you have to loctite the screws every time you do a strap change?

No, I just make sure that the screws are tight and I’ve never had a problem.
