Actually, I had that strap made for my 007 Bond.

I think it works well with both watches.

I love it, definitely a keeper. The size is great and I much prefer the bracelet to my snowflake that I used to have. The dial is amazing and the 80 hours of 36000bph won me over. Seems to be running at 3-5 seconds fast a day so far.

The white birch is just so good looking. How well has it been keeping time? I've seen a lot of reports that it struggles to stay within spec.

That's such a beautiful dial. The new SpringDrive movement Caliber 9RA5 is worth a look. I'm hoping to add one too with the right blue dial.

Nice! Can I ask where? And did they provide the buckle too?
