Re: Omega SMP and blue rubber strap?

: anyone out there that has a Omega SMP (the

: comments on this? Are you satisfied. Also if

If you haven't already, see the section on rubber SMP straps in the Bracelets and Straps article in the OMEGA ZONE on this site.

But while they look neat, I've seen a lot of them being resold on eBay and watch sales boards. So I suspect there are a lot of people who got them and found them not to their taste. Rubber straps really aren't that comfortable compared to metal, leather or cloth -- but some people really like them.

You might want to try getting a basic rubber strap to try first, before splurging the big bucks on the OMEGA version. Seen some on eBay for $10-13.
