Question about Panerai Colored Rubber Straps

[thsiao]

Does anyone know if the new colored tunnel rubber straps are significantly softer than the old black tunnel rubber straps? I typically don't wear the tunnel rubber straps because they are not as soft or as pliable. Last year I got a brown one when I purchased the 911 and noticed that it was slightly softer, but not as soft as I would've wanted. However, last month I was able to try on a new orange accordion strap and that was significantly softer compared to the old black accordion strap I got with my 305 (very comfortable).

Any feedback will be greatly appreciated.
