^ Both are great choices.

Thank you. I'm very pleased with how they turned out. It's nice to have a couple of good options to dress the watch up or down. They both have quick release springbars and the deployant clasp is easy to remove and attach. That makes changing straps quite fast as well.

Yeah that darker brown one looks particularly tasty.

One of the reasons Rolex USA only sells parts on a trade in basis. Check out this unsolicited message I received the other day. Apparently this guy "Builds rare Vintage Daytonas" from genuine Rolex parts.

Man, the amount of vintage scamming is really depressing...

Bet Bob Maron (and the entire vintage Rolex industrial complex) is loving that reference...

Same movement as the Tortue Monopoussoir. It was available in WG or RG. It was among the last of the CPCP watches that was released, around 2008. It's a cool watch, but it wears large based on its shape. I tried one on at my local boutique around 2008 or so. The Tortue fits my wrist better due to its curvature, but it was still cool to see this version of the Tank.

I just got two straps for my Reverso from Jones In Tokyo and they are superb. I feel like I've got new watches.
The quality looks first rate and each came in a beautiful leather pouch as well.

Black band w/numerals face looks great!
