SMPs alcantera? Black w black stitching....
I have one on way, trying to decide what to mount it on...
Ive seen Rubberclads (a sporty watch) on hornbacks which still look OK, and alcantera is obviously a sporty material sooo, i think it would work!?

it looks good on rubber, and it would look good on both saffiano and alcantara

To bump this old thread, trying to decide what I want to do....
Have a white dial RC, and the black rubber strap matches the bezel just perfectly! :)
Although alcantera is sporty, and I'm sure it will look good - holding it up to the watch it definitely doesn't flow with the rubber bezel QUITE as well.
Don't have time or patience to mount or remount straps here.
I have another watch (non-RC) for the alcantera if I don't use on this RC. It's such a beauty and needs to get good use somewhere!
So, do I mount the alcantera on this piece, or leave it off and stick with the standard rubber?

Secondly, can you use APBands 18mm buckles on standard rubber straps (i.e. Not APB straps?)
In case I didn't want to use deployant. The holes are just sooo small. Not sure if APB in house-straps have larger buckle holes?
