But I can't really tell what's changed since the last version.

- Smoother Integration Between Notches and Metal End Links
Previous Version : The notches were created by directly cutting into the leather, leaving visible horizontal cuts that created an awkward transition between the leather and metal end links.
New Version : A "reverse-wrapping" technique is now used. Excess leather is folded inward and wrapped around the back of the strap, eliminating unnatural horizontal cuts and achieving a seamless connection.
- Enhanced Decorative Hole Finishing
Precision Cutting : Decorative holes now feature smoother edges, which are achieved through a more matched mold-based cutting process.
Aesthetic Refinement : The inner walls of the holes are coated with blue edge-sealing wax and polished, creating a striking color contrast and a more sophisticated finish compared to the previous version.

·K kactuspersonally i don’t like it , i feel it makes it look like a 200$ watch , the original rubber strap can’t be beat .
I think you're being very harsh with your assessment of it being like a $200 watch.
I think it looks nice. It wouldn't be my first choice though. I think the Black rally strap is the best option here. That original rubber is harsh and the buckle is huge. Not a fan.

·I think the black and blue leather looks great. There are times when I think the original rubber could do with more color and a bit more flex (as much as I like it and have no immediate plans to change).
Those who've put the steel bracelet on it too also completely changes the watch.
In short, pick what you like & suits your style. It's a great dial so do whatever you want to make it pop.

i agree about the buckle , I have since changed it to an aftermarket matt black buckle and i find it much more comfortable . and it actually blends with the strap,

I couldn't stand the rubber so changed it on day 1.
I've had it on the Rally and Bracelet. I prefer the Leather.
