i want real omega stuff though… not random $1.15 straps. plus i wear a suit everyday so nato straps dont really go with that. ---

I don’t see the issue with NATO and suits. From WUS: ![http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a304/soianyhc21/27da7967.jpg](http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a304/soianyhc21/27da7967.jpg) ---

That would work much better with a blue leather strap imo. Stick to bum wear for the nato. Speaking of feeling blue: ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v654/Robanaba/IMG_6099.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v654/Robanaba/IMG_6099.jpg) edit - Bing I had my SMP on a black leather Hirsch strap for a while good quality for the money but I much prefer the bracelet over any strap really: ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v654/Robanaba/IMG_6102.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v654/Robanaba/IMG_6102.jpg) ---

You know whats funny? It’s a fake. A damn good one other than the fact that it’s quartz. If it was an automatic I bet you could fool almost anyone with it. I believe it may have came from here originally: [http://www.oemreplicawatches.com/bell-ross-br-01-94-limited-edition-swiss-eta-quartz-replica-8786.html](http://www.oemreplicawatches.com/bell-ross-br-01-94-limited-edition-swiss-eta-quartz-replica-8786.html) Balling at a fraction of the cost! ---

I’m still loving this watch. Bing, you were absolutely right on the timing being off. I find myself adjusting it every 3-4 days. Its very comfortable, light and it looks good too! ![http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c204/bobbyg1243/2011-03-22_12-19-20_136.jpg](http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c204/bobbyg1243/2011-03-22_12-19-20_136.jpg) ---
