Yeah Larry I am loving the faded insert, makes the RED look even more gorgeous.. Here it is with a new leather suede strap which I bought today..

Put my RED back on its original bracelet and tried my 2 inserts faded and less faded.. Have to say that the more faded insert looks better with the vintage leather straps BUT the darker faded one look better on the original steel bracelet...
I am amazed how many different looks this watch can offer with various shades of faded insert and different strap combos..
