Rolex SS buckle on 14060M

Hi JJ,

Janet bought me a Rolex SS buckle for Xmas (it only arrived yesterday) so I have removed the NATO strap that you like so much and put the red stitched strap back on.

Happy New Year to ALL.

Looks great. I often wear a Breitling leather strap on my 5513 Sub. The case holes for the spring bars make it a lot easier (and sturdier in my mind) for using a strap. I wish the Sea-Dweller still had them

No a 20mm for any Sport Rolex and the DJ and Day-Date.
The Oyster Perpetual, Date and Air-King require a 19mm strap

Bought the buckle from watchus100 on Ebay - took me 6 months to find one that was 18mm. Good transaction.

Link for the strap.

The pic in the link doesn't have the coronet on the buckle. Did you do that or is the pic just not right?

That band rocks. I actually took your pics and "shopped" the band onto an Explorer to see how it would look. I think I found my next project!
