That is a good looking watch and each strap looks nice on it. However, I prefer the Isofrane on that watch. Cheers, Bill P.
It looks best on rubber, it really does not work well with the brown leather cuz it's just trying to be dressy, it just can't.
Agree with previous posters - original rubber is great. Also like the leather but REALLY don't like the rubber oyster...

You might want to try the black bands using the black bezel that comes with the watch. I don't think the brown leather band would work with either bezel. I have and enjoy this watch with a black dial. Mine is an earlier model that has smaller hands. Your larger hands provide better appearance of balance and a more handsome presence.
Overall I think it looks great on the SS bracelet which "flows" from the case, but then again I like most of my divers on SS. To each his own.
Enjoy it,

Very nice. I love the blue dial...
