I currently own a SA with the blue face. However, its got the metal strap and im really looking into getting a leather/calf strap for it. Anyone got a blue face SA with either of these straps on it and woudln't mind posting a pic of it?

Ive tried going to AD and they only have the metal strap on it, so i can't get a good feel for it. What are your guys' opinions? black or brown strap?

thanks

I actually quite like blue dials with brown straps these days, so I'd be tempted to go with that.

Don't have a SA but I do have a SF. I have a black rubber strap, black calf strap and brown (gold or light brown or whatever it is called) calf. While I dig get feel of the rubber and ease of the deployment, I like the looks on brown better.

Sorry don't have one handy on black rubber.
