Yep! Just noticed I was living in the past. It's actually just past midnight in Norway, so it now indicates 2. Thanks!

Looks AMAZING!

I'd recommend folding the extra piece of fabric the other direction so that it's "hidden" behind itself. And crease it a bit so that the fold it tighter!

I got them form Amazon. The seller was a company called Clockwork Synergy, LLC and each strap (I bought two) was $11.95

Prefer the bracelet as well but it looks quite nice! I'm sure a black leather strap with red stitches would look beautiful as well!
