Wow that looks great. I have a GMT IIc that I would like to get these end links for. Any watch I have seen so far with these end links looks absolutely wonderful.

I think it looks great - having the end links helps make the leather strap look integral and part of the design, whereas I personally think that when you have a void between watch case and strap it looks untidy and unfinished. A top modification and adds a nice splash of colour too!!

Man! I've never been a huge fan of the milguass (mostly due to the design of the second hand) but THAT beast looks sharp!! I LOVE how it looks on that strap! Crap, now I might have to re-evaluate my next purchase! Thannnnks a lot!

Because of the amount of space between the case and the bracelet pins, I too have been trying to figure out how to fill the void. A 5-5.5mm thick strap work fairly well. Anything thinner leaves too much open space.
