Planet Ocean strap help
I currently have the 45.5 size w/ orange bezel and black rubber strap with the orange stitch.(pic)
I was curious if anyone knows how the other straps and bracelets compare. The rubber is extremely comfortable , are the leather straps just as or even more comfortable? How about the steel bracelet? Are the lengths the same? I am currently 2 notches out, so there is not too much room to give. Just wanted to get an overall opinion on the different strap / bracelet options. Thanks for the help !

I have tried all the available original rubber straps for the PO -except leather- I ve bought them together with my watch . I ve found the one u have better than bond's, but still the bracelet is unbeatable..straps and steel cant be compared..without the steel this watch is ''half '' watch ....

I've got the orange rubber strap on mine. I'm down to the 2nd to the last one as I've lost alot of weight. It's comfortable but I've always enjoyed the metal bracelets, but looking at an orange NATO strap for this one and maybe the orange crocodile strap...as they are comfortable and form to the wrist nicely.

Im also currently at two notches. Tried the bracelet on at the boutique in NY on the way home from work and it was more than roomy enough

Originally I wanted the steel bracelet, but my wife talked me into the rubber...(glad she did)
All of my other watches except 1 are steel. I would line the orange, jut for something different , but will go with the steel , and maybe a backup NATO. Thanks guys
