Thanks!

Not sure if the inserts are interchangeable but that would ruin the use of the coolest feature on both, imho. Having said that, do what works for you.

That GMT looks great. I like the WG Dayona on a strap and I hope that is my next one.

I prefer the original metal band on a Rolex... to each his own.

Hummm, I might have to get one of these leather Nato straps, they look really good. Kind of a distinct look for the watch.
