I've had the steel bracelet on as long as I've had the watch (2008), but just decided to order a cheap hornback from ebay to see if I like the brown leather. I think I do!

I just ordered a dark brown for my World (SS black dial). Will post pictures once I get it. I figured it was a cheap way to try it out. I didn't want to spend big bucks getting a custom genuine hornback strap without seeing what it might look like.

Pics coming soon in the gallery.
