Will be a minority here--it looks nice.

Don't know what you rock for your outfits, but if you are the guy who has some flare/sartorial inclinations, this combo could work, especially in the areas that tend to get hot.

At least now you know a White band doesn't work on the Daytona (or most any watch).

At first I didn't like it but the more I look at it I think with the right outfit it could look very nice. Anyway, thanks for sharing the pics.

Nothing wrong with a fun mod IMO. Especially when you can reverse it with no problems. Have fun with it OP! . I do have to say that the strap should lay higher and closer to the bezel. It doesn't seem like a perfect fit to the case. Here's an example next to a Rubber B.

More negative than positive as expected but more than enough positives to make the thread enjoyable for me. Whether positive or negative, it was fun and thank all of you for the opinions! I suspect a black Rubber B or leather croc next so stay tuned.

It's your watch and you get to look at it as often as you like so do it the way you like, as you've done.

I think it looks great!

Change is in and of itself refreshing. And when you want, you can go back.

Good for you. Enjoy *your* watch!

It’s a beauty.

But you may have your reasons, it's your watch.

No for me.
This. I think it’s the Everest strap

I had this on mine and (IMO) it looked great
