    I bought an SOII (with SEL) from Tungchoy watch. Good price. And it looks great on my 6309. No, wjean is not your only choice.

    I actually just purchased the same bracelet (should arrive in a few more days) directly from their website StrapCode.com. I've had only good experiences with them in the past. Hassle free returns and good products. I've purchased several leather straps of good quality from them. Never purchased a bracelet, but I would like to think the quality should be just as good.

    Tungchoy mentioned by mars08 is actually the same company as StrapCode. You'll get an email from a lady named Stella when you order from them. Since mars08 had no complaints of the bracelet from Tungchoy, the ones from StrapCode should be good to go.

    I've ordered 2 bands from Tungchoy in the last few months the latest last week with fast service and great prices, the one last week was actually shipped to me out of New Jersey so was here in only about 3 days. And there the same bands as the ones from the ebay link and yes I think Strap Code and Tungchoy are all associated with several different sites.
    Current watches: Citizen Eco-Drive Skyhawk Atomic JY0000-53E. Being built: Custom vintage style watch with 15 Jewel Cortebert 616 Swiss movement and custom dial.
    Watches now sold or traded: Seiko Marinemaster SBDX001 traded ;-( but know I will buy one again, Seiko Alpinist SARB061, 2 Lum-Tec Combat B-1's, 2 Omega Seamasters, Omega Speedmaster, Anonimo Millemetri, Anonimo Militare, Hamilton Officers Chrono, Citizen Skyhawk, Rolex Day Date, Tudor Prince, Steinhart Ocean One, Seiko Mil Sub Mod, Seiko FFF Mod, Seiko Sumo, Seiko Spring Drive, Sinn Hydro Prototype, Bell & Ross Bomb Squad, BaliHa'i CaliHa'i, Luminox Black Ops and many more over the years I just can't remember.

    I bought a Super Oyster Evo S from Harold (yobokies) and couldn't be happier with it. It's great. The SELs fit flush with the case, the bracelet is solid, the clasp is very nice. A little Loctite 242 (low strength, the purple stuff) on the threads of the bracelet screws and it's awesome. I've had my SKX007 mistaken for a Rolex several times now.
