Yes. They are totally off putting to me too. They look like bondage gear to me.. Not that I actively look for bondage gear online you understand..

Cool!
And a good way to mix things up. I think the root beer can go on any number of brown straps.

I do like the colour of the leather, it suits the CHNR. Is is dark brown or burgundy?

Great watch. Never understood why people call it the Rootbeer, a splash of brown on the bezel is long way from the Rootbeer. The closest modern rolex to the Rootbeer is the TT Yachtmaster with brown dial.

I try not to come off as a snob, but I prefer Rolex watches with their original bracelet. That said, I'm sure that when you can't swing a dead cat without hitting someone wearing a Rolex; some individuals like to personalize their watches.
I think that's fantastic. If we all liked the same thing, everyone would want to be married to my wife.
