You are totally making me consider buying this on rubber. It looks so good I'm wondering if I'll even bother with the bracelet.

The rubber strap does look good but the bracelet is really good also. Mine is on the bracelet, as the rubber strap versions and leather strap versions were not available when I took delivery of mine. I do plan on adding them at some point though.

How much is the strap I wonder? I will probably keep mine on bracelet but it’s nice to have options.

I just checked Omega for a leather Speedy strap and it was $540 with regular clasp. Bet the rubber is close to that. I bought a blue Omega rubber for my Seamaster and honestly, I think I like the Rubber B I bought better. That white Speedy looks so good with the rubber strap. I actually like all Speedmasters better on rubber , nylon and leather.

Do we know how much it costs to buy the bracelet? If planning to get both, which way works out better financially?

The bracelet would be around 820 $ and the strap with the folding clasp 490 USD

Does this mean that buying with bracelet then adding strap is the same as the reverse?

OK thanks

So quick math:

Buy on bracelet and add strap = $8,590

Buy on strap and add bracelet = $8,620

Cheaper to buy on rubber and I know I'd never wear on bracelet, so easy choice for me.
