Looks really good but if it were mine I'd be worried about strap burn with that pronounced ribbing..

Good job you did. very crafty.

I personally like the original bracelet. After waiting for a month to get the Bergeon 7825 tweezer, I was finally able to put on the rubber straps. I immediately know that it is not for me. It didn't feel comfortable. The strap holes adjustment wasn't right for me. Either too tight or too loose. I think I will stick with the metal bracelet

I think it look really great Denis, great shots too btw.

Out of curiosity, how large is your wrist? The folks that think this watch is too large compared to the outgoing sd4k might be surprised to know how small this one wears.

Small as in it doesn't wear like 43 mm IMO

Perfect! Yes, she needs much use to build up months (years?) of dirt, grime, etc than have been built up and cleaned off. A 'weathered look' as it were.

Keep rockin' it!

I really enjoy seeing different straps. They change the look of the watch and for relatively little money it's like you now have a brand new watch.

totally agreed ..
my wrist is 180mm - 7.34"
it wears as some watches in 41mm , - or just slightly bigger than HULK or GMT
I don't know why , but on the wrist SD43 is not like "43mm" regular , or only 1mm smaller than Panerai

I think it’s cool 9/10

Personally not a fan of the red accents and I would have done fabric keepers vs metal.

Great job though and nice craftsmanship.

I also think an olive or desert tan would look good on a sub.

Looks excellent !

The strap removes the retirement home look of the bracelet.
