    Are these your only two choices? I prefer the blue without the red, but my heart isn't racing.
    Think about considering a solid color leather NATO strap, these two are from BandRBand.

    I tried the blue and black solids, but for some reason I like the contrast of the black solid VS the blue solid.

    I'm the same... I like the combination of the black solid strap with the blue dial and bezel. Also how 006 and 007 wore their SMPs (same model you have) in the beginning of Goldeneye (and then 006 carries on doing). I tried to find a good image of this and borrowed the one below from the internet. I always thought it was a black Nato they wore their watches on (seems fitting for some kind of mission) but zooming in I think I can see a gap between the case and the strap so I'm not certain of it being a Nato. Anyway, I think the black/blue combo would look good!

    Such an underrated combo, and my inspiration for pairing my blue SMPc with a black rubber strap from Zealande.

    edit: I do not think that is a nato in the Bond film, if anything it looks like a leather strap. I went with the more tactical option of rubber.

    Your photos look good! Just checked out the Zealande site (thanks for the mention, can't recall if I've seen them mentioned before) - I'll have to do some more looking at the Omega models they have listed. Saw this one on the GMT though and thought I'd post it. Guess my opinion for @sevykor is a strong one for black/blue. :)
