I tried on a couple oyster flex and really didn’t like it. It felt sturdy but not comfortable or elegant really. But it made me wonder if a Rolex would start offering nato straps. I think that could be successful for them. Particularly on Submariners and explorers.

I can understand your perspective but wearing one for me is a different experience as I've got plenty of watches with regular bracelets. It's really nice to have something a bit less heavy and overbearingly restrictive.

Looks good, I've done the same (instead of taking the plunge into the regular models which come with the OF bracelet). It's nice to be in the later category. Really nice with a Sky D as well.

Man these are beautiful photos.

I actually wish a few more models, and maybe even some two tones, were available on OF. The PM bracelets put everything out of my price range unfortunately.

I love it! I’ve got the version that utilizes the factory glidelock clasp. I know it’s blasphemous, but I actually prefer it to the steel bracelet.

I’ve done the same thing using non-Rolex straps. I really prefer the OEM strap. Can’t tell that there’s a blade in it, either.

Moved to a new house much closer to work.
Got rid of my car.
I take the bus.
It’s great.
