I have the same watch, mroctober, and I've been considering that band. Any chance you can post a picture of that combo lying on a flat surface, showing the whole band?

Hope this helps.
Contrary to popular belief that only black strap looks good on black dial, here is the proof that brown or gold looks great on black dial as well. I also have the brown croco and believe me it also looks awesome on black dial. I just happen to love the pattern on the gold. (Btw, that was pure luck since the pattern always changes from one strap to another).

Thanks, Sal, looks great. I can always get a much better idea with a picture. I can't visualize that stuff like some folks can. I have been wondering about shades and style of brown with this watch. I wouldn't have thought twice with gold, but with steel, I wasn't sure. Is that the 755P?

sorry 'wrangler', I'm not sure about 755P. What do you mean by that?

The model number imprinted on the inside of the strap, generally 3 numbers and one or two letters, in my very limited experience.

All of 24mm croco straps are printed with 24-20 (regardless of color).
The bracelet on my world is printed with 443A.

Yes, "24-20", with the length underneath it. I don't know that the model number is marked on all straps, but it is marked at least on some; perhaps it's not on yours. I'm still learning.

Here's an example in an old FS thread here: viewtopic.php?p=112715#p112715

See the "440X" in the last picture of the first post.

Yes. You are correct!
I've checked all of my '24mm croco' straps and here what I found:
-Gold deployant: 755P
-Brown deployant: 757P
-Brown tang: 756P
-Black deployant: 761P

So much to love about a Steelfish on calf.

Thanks a lot, Sal! I never trust that I'm looking at the same color online from picture to picture without numbers, the way photos can differ due to lighting, etc.

Agreed 100%. When I see this now mine is going back on the calf for a while! :drool:

Beautiful day today in Arizona

Yes it is a damn beautiful day in Arizona. Not a cloud, 74 degrees with a slight breeze. Perfect day for the Navi 01 LE. But what day isn't?
