@ celestial yeah it appears the meterial feels different on the bezel than on the case, pattern also more subtle on the case compared to the bezel
@ tr573 the rubber strap feels rather comforable, no wear marks. Then again, my wrist is very small so it doesnt fit tight so im not sure if is as comfortable when fully tighten. I do have a spare strap that came with the purchase but havent used yet. Visually, the trap looks very close to Gen (guess since its just rubber)
The ones that with our reps are certainly at a nice level and are comparable to the gen caoutchouc straps (probably like a NWBIG level). I've bought reps locally where the quality of the rubber is definitely of a much lower class than the aforementioned rep straps.So it's not "just rubber".
