I have the large size quartz model 2264.50
The strap is comfortable, I don't like it any more or less than the Bond style bracelet.
However I much prefer the new style face.
I had to really look sometimes at the old skeleton hands to tell the time especially atlow light and they are not much better in the dark when you have to differentiate between the ends of the minute and hour hands.The new hands(luminova?) are fantastic in any light and even glow in the day.
I like the black colour far better than blue although the "waves" aren't so visible.
Also I think the bolder bezel markings are superior in style.
When placed together I think the Bond looks slightly old fashioned but that is often the way when a new style in anything comes out.
They are both great watches (the insides are the same anyway)
I just consider the black has the edge for me.
Hope this helps.
