I think it looks better on the skyland than on the evo with the bling ;)

That evo was made for steel, I'd stick with the racer on skyland.

I love it on the Avenger Skyland. I have the Diver Pro that I throw in the mix for my AS. I have a super Avenger on order and I have been giving some serious thought to picking up a black Ocean Racer. I saw some pictures of SA on a red Ocean Racer today that look pretty cool, but I think I will start with the black. Thanks for the pictures. The more pictures and comments I see on the Avenger Skyland the better I feel about owning this watch!

I agree that steel belongs on the evo, as a matter of fact I think that of all the Windrider line. The Ocean Racer looks stunning on the Skyland, I think that is the best of all straps or bracelets for Skyland.
Cheers,
Carl

I love the Avenger Skyland on the SS Pro II, it's the business. All other straps look great on it, but are only temporary looks and it's back to the Steel Bracelet. At least for me.

Nice pics! I have the same combo and feel it gives the watch a different look. I receive the Red Ocean Racer tommorrow from the AD so I will post pics over the weekend, can't wait.

Nik I totally agree with you although I love the OR straps you can't beat the Steel! :wink:

A red ocean racer on a blacksteel would be the shiznit.

I agree with you - good on the Skyland, questionable for the Evo... Rubber and diamonds is a bit too weird for me.
