My 16600 on a newly acquired (pre-owned - I'm not that silly) Rubber B strap.
The strap itself is a beautifully made piece of kit, that doesn't seem to pick up lint, but the RRP is too high for me.
Out of interest have you fitted the Rolex clasp or are you using a buckle?

Lovely watch but lung cancer literature in the background is a bit weird If I was a cardiologist with a large independent practice I'd be able to justify spending 20x as much on the very nice, simple, one button, one crown wheel Ball Dr's Chronograph in the same colour (only 99 made, in Pt).

Something curious turned up in the post this morning...
Actually really like it! A very copper-rich bronze which should develop a lovely patina. Ordered from Hong Kong on 24 April and deliverd to me this morning - fantastci system with emails and tracking all the way. What a great company! Took it off the leather and put it on the canvas; it's huge but I wanted that 'Captain Nemo' look for a bronze watch so it fits the bill.
My enjoyment of boutique/microbrands continues

Very Nice. Did you get to keep the bits they've replaced?Surprise birthday present - 1968 SM300, authenticated, restored and serviced by Omega.
FWIW, I wear mine on an Isofrane which, IMHO, is much more comfortable than the steel bracelet (the end pieces of which also scratch the bottom of the lugs).
