I really want to see the white strap though...You absolutely can pull it off! If you change the straps, I wish you luck because I spent 90 minutes this week putting a new strap on my Ghost

Ha ha, yeah, not looking forward to the strap change! I have the proper tools but it has previously taken my at least an hour to change the strap on the Diver!

Yep. I need an XS strap which hasn’t arrived yet, so I’ve just put my Diver strap on it which fits perfectly.

However, the Chrono has the tapered strap, unlike the Diver. So there is a buckle issue if you want to put a spare Diver strap (which you don’t have a spare buckle for) on the Chrono.

The tapered strap works better on my smaller wrists, and suits the slight smarter look of the Chrono.

Ah, so the plots are the same but the taper and thus the buckle differ.

But, at least you can move the whole strap, buckle included, from watch to watch. Cool.

Congrats, it looks good on you! 109g is light indeed, like an AP Aquanaut.

Congrats!

I suspect the grey Swimskin from RubberB will look very good on it.
