Added in an oem buckle by using an X acto knife to widen the hole that fits my wrist. Perfect fishing/ beach watch. I was hoping that someone would make a properly integrated strap for these (Omega does such a great job on the professional and Aqua Terra rubber straps).

The rubber is very soft and the textured look is very close to looking like a leather, only by touch could you notice the difference.

looks great but have an honest question, why wouldnt you have just got the correct omega buckle for the smaller hole?
seems like a pricey surgery especially if the wide hole you made rips the rubber and ruins the strap. i have tried making holes, trimming ,etc. with no luck and I was extra careful...
