I missed out on this deal, dammit. But, I’m not a big fan of rubber dive watch straps since mine never get wet. My everyday watches are Seiko automatics with bracelets.
I wonder if they do a bracelet version of these?

So here we go.
I like it.
For $105 I got no complains.

I’ve not seen one, but I’m sure a jeweler can fit one?
The rubber straps are useful in scuba diving, in particular if you wear a wet suit. At depth of 100’ you get a fair bit of compression from the water pressure (4ATM) in the neoprene (it gets thinner)
So the band may end up loose during a dive, especially if it is a square profile. The Citizen rubber band design with the 2 ‘S’ shapes on both sides, tends to help (some) since you can stretch the ‘S’ a bit tighter at the surface before a dive. At the bottom, your suit compresses but the watch retains tightness.
Bracelets generally do not have this feature (except Rolex Submariners, which has a special clasp for this).

Today's price is only $10 higher @123. Still seems like a fair deal. Link

If you look at the reviews for the blue faced model, there's a picture of what one looks like with a bracelet.

Apparently the packaging for the blue one is "different."

I got mine today. It looks nice. The packaging was a little over the top

I’m going to try these watch face protectors and get a nato strap
I bought one of these as well. Plan to use it when long sleeves are necessary (suits, executive visits, etc) since my Sunto doesn't fit under a cuff.
Can anyone recommend a decent strap? I bought a cheap 5-ring Zulu on Amazon but it's far too short to route properly. I'm going to cut off the extra piece with 2 rings to convert it to a 3 ring, but I'm wondering if there is a better option.
