Streamliner for me. The overseas wears large on me. If they reduced the overseas 2mm, would be a harder decision.

Follow up on this...???

If it is from the Alpine release, and it looks like it fits the Chrono just fine... does it also fit the Perpetual Calendar? Any insight would be helpfull.

The Streamliner, while well made, does nothing for me design-wise. Looks way too modern for my old-school horology sensibilities.

The blue VC, especially with the pre-2021 lacquer dials, is stunning and so beautifully finished. The three straps are just a bonus.

Also, the Streamliner is about $10K more.

Hi, yes it is the Alpine strap and fits the Chronograph. Not sure if it fits any other models except the Chrono.

Very pliable for a rubber strap more akin to Oysteflex than an Aquanaut strap
