The GPC strap looks great!

Look at that FORGED CARBON.. how could AP be phasing out this stunning material! What a shame.. look at that MARBLING in lighting.. like a piece of kobe beef.. truly awesome to look at!

I don't own a 44mm ROO, but I just want that strap! LOL. That Alcantara® is one of my favorite materials. Make me miss my old Acura (Honda) Integra TypeR seats!

That's hot! Well done. It's what I'd do if I got a 44mm.

Great watch and perfect strap

I don't mean to hijack, Soly, I apologize. Isn't there a similar strap for the 42mm that usually ends up being put on Pandas? Is it suede as well?

Looks awesome! How does it feel, comfort wise?

That's a combo I've been meaning to put together but never think to pick up the phone to order the strap. I think you just motivated me to do that this afternoon.

I can't believe they are stopping the FC line either!

It feels very comfortable. I encourage you to get one, it gives the watch a completely different look and feel, yet is stays classy.

Looking really good Soly!!! I'm curious, did you see the newer black croc strap that also fits the FC? I believe Thomas posted a pic of it in another thread.

Yeah i saw the croc strap but i wanted a more sporty look. I think the croc would look good on the RG model which i will hopefully get at the end of this year.

When I called about it, the girl suggested I come see it in person to make sure I like it before purchasing. Unfortunately, I don't have an AD locally.
