Very nice. A 25k + watch on rubber just doesn't feel right.
I know it's waterproof etc.

Looking good! I always prefer rubber but it's nice to be able to change it up.

That strap looks great on that watch. What size is your wrist?

It feels perfect when he tells you the scandalous price of that strap!

That's a good look! I prefer the rubber on all of the 44s but that definitely works.

Clearwater will change the thread for 150 on any strap. I believe that one (from what I was looking at) was 520 plus 150 and hornbacks are 625 or 650 plus 150. The OP can say for sure but that's what I was quoted several times.

oh, and what strap is that? it looks like a matt finish! I like it. Obviously won't fit on my 42mm.

Clearwater charged me $811 for the custom stitched AP band.

That's honestly cheaper than I would have expected.. Very nice either way!

The GP strap is another nice option for this watch, at about half the cost.

That's not bad at all for a custom band--I'd say almost cheap price wise. Good score.

Congrats and looks great.
