I’m thinking Panda 44 and Montoya titanium and perhaps even Marcus I Donno

What do you guys think of the Miami Blue for deployment on a Marcus? I was thinking it will look good but the red hands may clash with the color of the strap. The gold case combo is growing on my, not sure how it would look on a Schumacher but will see! lol

Besides the obvious Montauk Highway, I think these Miami Blue straps would work best with the most chromatically simple Offshores, like SS Diver, Black Themes, Blue Themes, classic Safari, etc. What irritates me about this limited edition, besides the fact that it is limited, is that the Miami Blue straps for the APs are almost $100 more than the ones for the Panerais. It seems that Horus is targeting the OEM prices in a really greedy way.

I think it's because the market for AP straps is smaller. Also, the "Pam" straps are the same as the Tudor , Omega, Tag Heuer, etc. straps.

They're all that generic fit strap.

Vs the AP, Rolex, and Hublot straps which are custom.

Yes, you are probably right Curt. When I think of a brand that would work with this Miami Blue color rubber strap, I actually think of Panerai first.

Yes, it seems today is the last day to order. I added a Diver strap to the 42mm for tang order I already made. I am keeping away from the 42mm for deployant as the Horus straps IMO are too flimsy to support a SS watch at 18mm width. But who knows...

Looks like Horus are still selling these Miami Blue rubber straps on their website despite saying the last chance to purchase was a few days ago.

in fact they say sold out but I am able to add to the cart and pay, probably just making some extra hype :)

I noticed that they advertise "diver straps" but they still say 20mm buckle, I'm wondering if they really are just like the "2014 style" straps instead of true 24mm diver straps.

I got tracking for my orders.
Horus are a real mysterium to me.
I C&Red alot of their straps in the past.
Hope I really do get a true Diver strap.
