I'd go for the Diver Pro II personally. In pictures I always preferred the OR to the DPII, but in person I find the DPII looks much nicer in person. Just my opinion : others may think the opposite.

Maybe I'm dumb but I think the Ocean Racer Strap looks better on the dive watches like the Steelfish, Seawolf and Superocean. I think on the Windrider models the DPII looks much more suitable. I think that the OR looks too sporty for a watch like the Chronomat or Blackbird.

:yeahthat Provided the Heritage is included in the dive watch category, since its looks great on an OR. (yes, I know the diver history of the Heritage, but personally consider it more dress than dive watch).

I saw the watch today for the first time. I see people talking about two different straps (models) and don't know the real difference. does anyone have any pictures of the two models with prices? I am going down south this August and would be really interested in buying another watch.

thanks in advance
