I picked this up a few weeks ago and would love to get a Rubber Strap for it. I love the Ocean Racer Strap, but the price is steep. Can someone tell me if it is worth the money? Does anybody have pics of other straps on the SO 44? Any and all information is welcomed.

One more questions is the lug width 22MM?

If the OR is too expensive, go with a standard diver pro I or II with tang buckle. You can probably find one on the BST for $100.

Yes the OR strap is worth the money. The reason it is so expensive is because of the deployant clasp. The rubber itself is under $100.

I have a new SO44 on an ocean racer, absolutely love the strap, better than any bracelet, much more comfortable than the croc deployment, and micro adjustable as well. Totally worth the money.

That's an awesome watch! I've been tempted lately by the yellow or orange versions. It looks great on either the brushed bracelet, or a strap.

Cheers and congrats!!

I have gone ahead and purchased this. http://www.ebay.com/itm/261052418752?ss ... 1439.l2649

Hopefully the link is allowed as this was already purchased by me. The user stated he was a member here, and he did have good EBay Feedback. Upon further review he seems to have just became a member and never posted. Hopefully he is a good seller and I get an Authentic Ocean Racer Buckle and Strap.

Take care
