Congrats! Incredible addition. Does it come with a blue rubber strap too or croc only?

I know everyone always highlights the bracelet, but honestly the navy blue strap on this particular model really seems to help emphasize the rose gold case AND the deep blue dial too. Clearly we’re all impressed by this model as a whole. Do any of you think getting this blue strap for the steel version of this ROC with blue dial would look almost as stunning?
I keep contemplating this for my steel piece.

Thank you!
This watch comes with the leather only.

Very long story, Ive been waiting for a ROC blue dial in steel since late 2020. When the 26331st got discontinued I requested the new reference in January 2022. By late June I got fed up and I asked for this piece since I liked it just as much.

So the answer can be 1.5 years, 7 months, or 1 months, depending on how you see it.

Wow congrats! That’s an amazing looking piece. I’ve never seen that color combination in person but I’ll bet the blue and rose gold are just perfect together.

I wish the steel bracelets could be replaced by a bluxe strap like this, but unfortunately AP said not possible with the new ROCs.

I keep contemplating this for my steel piece.
I tried the green version if this and unfortunately I simply don’t like how much the colors match. It’s a stunning watch no doubt but for me there is simply too much color going on when I wore it and for me it would have to be full gold.
Just my .02 of course.
