·I'd just go black Tropic. Though I like mine on the gray tropic as is
Pricewise they are reasonably expensive but not in OEM region.
The grey looks great on yours. Would be that or the black.

·Oh and they are very comfortable. I'm not a rubber strap enthusiast at all but have always liked the look of the Tropic, and never thought I'd say this but even at $80 US they are absolutely worth it if you've decided on the look.

·Very cool that. Cheers for confirming the size.
I still need to consider which colour, but the grey or the green are high favourites so far.
With regards to removing the bracelet, is this easily done without scratching? How about refitting?
I have only ever removed one bracelet and it was a nightmare to refit. This was on a cheap watch though, so no doubt down to the lack of quality control with the holes in the lugs as one side was fine.

·Here you go @Jim Dollares. Knew that Apple Pencil would come in handy again. Don’t have the patience of my youth, but decent quick effort.

·Yeah I gotta be completely honest with you. That does look good. But is it the ideal fit. I gotta be honest with you. I don't think it is. OEM black rubber is definitely the way to go. Then you also get the mega quick adjust clasp, exactly like on the bracelet.
I do really like the Tropic straps in fairness, although the OEM TH strap which perfectly fits the lugs and includes the quick adjust clasp certainly warrants a good think.

·If you have two hands and you are a man, you will have zero issues. Easiest bracelet I've ever removed and fitted again

With bracelets, I usually apply a little pressure to the underside of the end link so when I pop out one side of the springbar, it doesn't go right back in when I get the other side. Not that bad once you get the hang of it
