Picked up a black croc strap with deployment, absolutely love it, great change from the bracelet.

A question to other croc strap owners, is it just me or is the strap really stiff and rigid, will it "break in" and conform to my wrist?

The croc straps take a little while to break in, and it will feel stiff initially - but soon it will feel really comfortable :lol:

Yeah when I first tried mine it was very uncomfortable and rigid, I left it over night around the cushion from the travel case to bend it over night then in the morning just used my hands to flex it a bit more then it was fine

yup, its pretty stiff at the beginning...just needs to be broken-in...and since you have the deployment clasp it will naturally take the mold around your wrist.

great

Love the piece, so much more elegant than the SS bracelet. sometimes i felt a bit self conscious when wearing a suit with the SS but this complements it perfectly.
