Agree - always felt the Speedy's Black dial worked well with brown straps. That gator looks awesome. The strap seems to go all the way to the case, wonder if it's OEM? I'm not well versed with Omega straps, but my 9300's calf strap has a curved shape so that it form fits the case, as opposed to just being straight across the springbar.. I'll need to look into a brown croc/gator/calf one of these days!

Get one!

Also, in regards to the strap conversation... Anyone have any suggestions for the MUT Moon? I was talking to Cylon about it earlier via PM, and would of course appreciate suggestions.

strap is definitely not OEM.

That dial looks fantastic. LOVE that patina.

You have pushed me over the edge. I need to get my 9300 on a strap, pronto. Where did you source yours?

I have two. For srs. Looks like the original cal. 321 movement. It is not the very earliest, because of the case shape (mine, neither).
