Just got a S.A. a couple of weeks ago. I originally wanted a grey-faced Avenger but I made the mistake of trying on a white-faced S.A. and suddenly the regular Avenger seemed obsolete. I've always been a rubber strap kind of guy so I'd like to put a black diver on my S.A. but I'm wondering if this is 'sacrilegious'? Does anyone have pics of an S.A. on a rubber strap by any chance?

Thanks in advance!

Hmm... looks like I'll be keeping my S.A. the way it is. For some reason, I don't like how it looks on rubber. I'll just buy a PAM 112 if I want a watch with a rubber strap - problem solved!

Thanks for the help!

Wait a while until you're bored with the bracelet. You'll be shocked how much more striking your SA (especially since it's white) is on the rubber!

Here's mine:

:shock: Isn't Diving with a SA risky business? If you hit the chrono your pretty much screwed right? :roll: :?:

To activate the chrono you really have to hit the pushers hard...b/c there is a hard click that has to happen before its activated. This is actually a little bit of safety for a diver.

That being said..is it a risk? A bit I guess but that what these watches are made for.

Good to know, I'm guessing that goes the same for my Chronomat Evo? It also has a rather hard click!

Stunning combo! I love the contrast of the crisp white face on the black rubber.

Do you have any wrist pics?
