DateJust II on 21/18mm genuine Rolex tang buckle

I looked everywhere and was finally able to source two genuine Rolex tang buckles. They're both stamped ROLEX on the back where the middle bar on the E is shorter than the top and bottom just like on the watch.

I managed to get it fit my 21/18mm strap for my DateJust II.

What do you think?

I'm in the process of getting a custom alligator hornback leather strap fitted with the original Rolex metal deployment buckle. I'll upload pics as soon as they come back.

A great look in my opinion...I've been thinking of a similar look for a 39mm Explorer 1.
Any pics out there of an Explorer on a leather strap?
Where did you get the strap?

I'd have to say this is my grail until I can afford the SkyDweller. Then again, I do love my 5512, SeaDweller and JLC equally together they add up to the sum of this DJII.

My 100% honest response is that it looks great!
I love how the stitching is like a sports car where the interior will match the exterior.

Very cool
