Quick shot from yesterday.. the more I wear the rubber, the more I love it and extremely comfortable and great fit



Not bad on bracelet but rubber is the way I like it

Congrats! I have the rubber strap for my black 3861, but it doesn’t look as good black on black. I just put the deposit down for the new white speedy & can’t wait to try the rubber strap on it. I think it looks much better with the white dial.

I put down my deposit on the release day and stopped in on Good Friday. Tried on the exhibition piece and liked the bracelet. The sales assistant has my deposit verified and said that orders will definitely be arriving soon!

While I bought the rubber strap, part of me wants to pick up the olive drab ripstop that Bulang and Sons sells.

*And definately getting that lumed ceramic bezel from Spiral Winder!

The rubber strap is $270......it does have a cooler moonscape on the inside. As for clasp, I found a dealer online that sells am Omega style brushed finish for $18. I picked one up on a whim for another watch and was really happy with it, so, its going on the new Omega.

Look amazing! What’s your wrist size? I’m a 6.5” and wondering if I can swing the rubber strap.

An odd couple but both charming and super comfortable to rock on the wrist. The newer style bracelet gives a nice contrast to the patina of my 3590.50 while the rubber adds a more sporty vibe to the white speedy.. both dominating wrist time over others

Wow, that really changes that watch. Absolutely love that rubber strap. I think it looks way better! Do they offer it instead of bracelet when buying? Edit myself. I see they do.
