The speedmaster style bracelet is a special order for North American customers. You can get it in place of the traditional bracelet at no additional cost. However, because it is an option, and many dealers in the US are still waiting on shipments of the new SMPs, you might have to wait awhile.
The SMP is a durable watch. However, I do not think that I would purchase the SMP for everyday use in a diving situation. Not because the watch can't handle the rough use, but because the replacement cost would be high it was irreparably damaged. I would get the SMP for the odd dive and get the Seiko SKX007 with the 7S26 auto movement for my everyday workhorse.
