Finally, the black calf strap for my 292M arrived and has been fitted. 
Bought from The Watch Boys, it is 26/22mm and 3.5 to 5mm thick, Italian black leather and is of excellent quality for only $29.95. Seriously, if someone told me they paid three times that I wouldn't have been surprised!
I also bought a 22mm PVD buckle to go with it since the one supplied with the 292M was 26mm.

As for fitting it, it went quite smoothly with no drama over lost screws or broken lug bars! One bar doesn't appear to have returned to its original position since there is a very slight sliver of steel showing - it may need pushing in another 1mm so I'll check that out later.
Sorry if this combo is boring now but I really wanted it to look similar to the gen and be able to wear it to work - I'm convinced that Radiomirs should be fitted with tapered straps rather than straight cut 26mm since they are finer and more dressy than the regular PAMs. All in my humble opinion of course!
Here are some (pretty poor) pics for now, but I will take better ones another time. (Damn light tight is tricky to get used to
