Hi Guys,Here is a link to a posting on WUS I was just reading. The guy got an AS Blacksteel, with a PVD'd Ocean Racer Strap. It does look pretty amazing!

Hey Spartan!
I'm taking your advice, and giving my Blacksteel more wrist time. On the weekends. I am not one to baby my watches, but in this case I can't afford to wear it to work and get another scratch that goes through to the metal. I wouldn't mind scratches just on the surface, but when they go through to the metal that starts to bother me. Anyway, the one I have is just the size of a pencil point at the edge of the bezel, so I really don't notice it.
I don't know that I will get my OR PVD'd, though, but those pics on WUS sure did look stunning!
Cheers,
Carl

Looking great, but it looks DLC (like the watch), not PVD.

Either way, I'll reserve judgment until I see what the clasp looks like in 3 months time.

Hey Carl, do you want to order the APB one with the red stitching? Lets order 2 of them, maybe we can get a deal?
