Prefer ABP, but I quite like it. Not really my colour, but not a "Yuk" for me.

I dont like it when they have the large, "lifted" scales that look like they are about to peel off. It gives me the chills.

I agree about the large scales, but in general I don't have a problem with snake-skin straps. I probably wouldn't have one on a Breitling 'cause I have a weird thing about OEM straps only on Breitlings, but I'd wear it on another watch, no problem.

Looks fine to me too. Maybe the color isn't a great fit, but I don't have a problem at all with the scales. Looks a little bit like my ABP python strap.
