Wow, that's really nice. I'm thinking of one of those for my 183. Any chance I can ask how much you paid for it?

Nice looking combo!

The equivolent of $300 US.Waited nearly 6 months for it !!! It seems to be quite a scarce strap.It used to be the OEM strap for the 217.

249 is a beauty. Cali dial, stealthy with no lettering to clutter, and those blue hands. I hated it at first, but now am strangely attracted.

Frankly, OEM gator straps are the best out there I've seen. Well worth the money. I've considered black OEM for mine someday.

Thanks for all the comments

Just a word of caution : If you want a 26/26 OEM black Gator/ecru stitch,place the order now,because the waiting time was looooooooooong !!!
