I see no problem with that, do what you like, you may discover a new fad. Post pics when you do it! :lingsrock:

That's funny, I justed phoned the AD yesterday to see if they had a blue ocean racer strap in stock for my blue dial steel fish. I want to try a strap to change things up a bit but am not sure what would go with the blue dial, I was going to see how the brown leather looked as well. If you do end up getting the diver pro put the pics up.

It's the only way I wear my two, unless of course a dinner band is needed...

It may have something to do with the whole "full ling" concept...I've caught a bit of grief in the past about having straps, not bracelets, on my SA...but I say make the watch functional to the individual...

I wouldn't wear it to dinner but it's perfectly acceptable for less formal affairs....

Don't think this forum will look poorly upon it unless you don't post some pics!

didn't realize I had another smoker on here...I mainly smoke only patel, unless something reviews well, then I'll try it...I love the maroon band anniv. series and the decades with the cream band!

I'd love to see pics of that! I'm considering getting the blue croc for SA w/ Blue dial, silver subs.
I think it would look sharp!
To the OP, I'm also considering a blue diver Pro, just to have the ability to change my watch any day of the week!
