What do you think of my "Dark Grey Side of the Moon"?? I ordered a Dark side of the moon strap directly from omega to put it in my Grey side. I live in a quite hot city and work a lot outside so I was afraid of damaging the gorgeous grey alligator strap. I thought if I had a tougherstrap I could use my watch more often.
Wouldn't it be nice if Omega included the quick release mechanism in their straps as well 馃槙
They can be a PITA to change at times, especially the fitted ones (that curve at the ends and fit directly against the watch case).
I guess my frustration is mostly related to the bracelet.
I have the Bergeon tools as well, but sometimes those spring bars aren't as compliant as I would like 馃槨

Looks great, but you will also damage that strap if you sweat a lot in a hot city - the inner lining is leather and lots of sweat will destroy it. I live in NYC and just put my DSOTM on a Rubber strap for the Summer, probably until late September. Last Summer I just didn鈥檛 wear it. This is the strap, the one with grey stitching. Not a bad match for the OEM DSOTM strap, appearance wise, except for the clasp:

I bought a strap that looks very similar to that one for my blackbay and after 3-4 uses some white stains appeared and can鈥檛 get rid of them?? I鈥檝e washed it with soap and water and a brush a couple times with no success.
That sucks. I鈥檝e not had that problem with rubber/pvc straps like this one. So far so good with it, and as @Evitzee said, straps are consumable items anyway, at least at this price point ($34).
