Me, too. I need a new strap for mine. I had ordered an OEM brown with white stitch, and the vendor sent me the wrong size, so I returned it. Since it's Summer, and quite humid in NJ, I'll wear it on the bracelet, until I find a good deal on an OEM, or a high end aftermarket. In the mean time, I'll get a 20mm OEM buckle. I do have an 18mm buckle , so I could do a 22/18 aftermarket strap.

The shop I got this from had some straps that were 22-18 and made for bristling, looked really nice. He also had a breitling oem deployant buckle that he was going to let me have for 100. That's a really good price. Sent from my LG-E980 using proboards
