    Stumbled upon something beautiful

    After picking up a cracking Aqua Terra off the forum recently, and not being a massive fan of croc/alligator straps, I had a look around for something else and stumbled upon this...




    Omega Blue rubber.

    Its really soft and supple, I can't believe its rubber. Really hard to photograph with an iPhone but here goes...







    Highly recommended!

    It is a dark blue, but nowhere near as dark as these pictures show. I will take some more in the daylight, that should show the colour off...

    Most people wear AT as a dress(y) watch,but this strap looks amazing.

    Any price tag for the strap?

    Paid £165 new. A new alligator would have been £195 with an RRP way more than that!

    Bloody hard work to capture the colour with a phone! It isn't happening so here's a stock photo...

    Much like the Rolex Explorer, it's one of those watches that does both roles. I'd have no problems wearing with a suit or at the beach.

    Looks great on that strap!

    I have the same strap for my speedy Broad Arrow. Like you say, hard to believe it's rubber

    Anyone know what model it's designed for? I've looked into these straps before for a vintage seamaster I have but they only make it as a 20mm AFAIK, not 22mm. Looks nice on your AT.

    Lovely looking watch. The blue strap really helps the dial 'pop' out visually somehow.
