What do you think?

The snoopy strap was getting hot and sweat.

Figured for summer it’d be good to put it on rubber. Pictured is the seamaster strap. Fits perfectly.

My first impression was that I liked it. My second was that I was going to swap it back immediately.

But wearing it today I’m kind of loving it. Might be perfect for the summer and then back to original for winter.

What do you guys think?

I think I've yet to see any strap on a Speedy that I don't like, this one included.

I love that look. Is it 21 or 20mm strap?

Looks great. I’d do the same thing, I’m a very sweaty dude and I tend to avoid regular straps in the summer.

Thanks all.

Appreciate the feedback. I’m liking it more and more. And it’s definitely super comfortable.

I prefer the non integrated look of the original strap. It adds to the charm. But the more I look at this, the more I like.

I think it looks great and I might like it more than the OEM strap that came on it.

That is great.

I thought the best thing about the new Aqua Terra was this strap. If it fits others like a speedy, I am interested. I wonder if it can fit the speedy racing 9300? Your white dial is great, and as it is impossible to get hold of this may be the next best thing. The onle with the orange stitching may bring out the orange 'speedmaster' test.

Edit: Ah, the 9300 and 9900 speedies are 21mm. Shame.

Works for me. I think the rubber on the AT is great and works well here too.

Nice Seth, I like it. Does the aqua terra strap fit the snoopy stock deployment?
