Agreed. Like that rubber strap. What did you do for end links?

Here's my pair. (Had a photographer takes pics of my new office and he took some shots while there)

Nice pair! If you refer to my post? I luckily managed to source TBB OEM endings at a local AD in Geneva (even though I bought mine on leather not bracelet) and for very cheap I found...

Yeah. I'm still after those ends. To no avail.

Thanks, it matches the watch quite well; considering a deployment clasp for the bracelet.

I'd ordered a deployment clasp which finally came in and I added; here are some quick shots. The success of this one has led me to looking at other straps and deployment buckles for some of my other watches as well.

Not bad. I think I'm sticking with steel though.

And at some point I'm certain I'll switch back to steel as well for now I'm enjoying the strap. For a minor investment if give some major opportunity to vary the look a feel of the watch.

Has anyone swapped out the Red Bezel for the Blue one or vice versa? Is that even possible?

You'd be able to I'm pretty certain although I don't see many OEM inserts out on the market yet (see a few after market ones); not certain that they'll ever be.

Swapping the insert is one of the first things I'm looking at with this model. As much as I love both the Red and the Blue finances will only permit one purchase.

I am loving my BB, but was wondering if anybody here has lost the 12 o'clock pearl? And was it an easy fix? Thank you!

I would keep it like that if mine fell off. It's too white compared to the lume plots, and the red BB seems to look better the more beaten up it gets

What makes you think that? The RSC just replaced the pearl on it, since that pic was taken.
