Here's mine on an Everest. I would definitely want a black strap with the black Daytona.

Would love to see some black strap options on the white dial 116500, as I'm thinking of putting on a black strap on that watch and keeping the bracelet for my black dial.

I'd say that the strap options in my opinion look better on the pre-ceramic models

I like the look but I just can’t do it. I wish Rolex offered OEM options to mix it up a little but that’s wishful thinking.

Black dial always has a better options with straps. Not so much with white dial. In my opinion.

I like it but I learned not to mess with the way they came from the factory!

As far as the Daytona goes .... only one real strap for me:
A black alligator bund strap like Paul Newman used to have.

I'd prefer a leather band any day over the Oysterflex. The Oysterflex is nice, but I'd just rather have a leather strap.
