Let me get one to try. Thanks!

Straposphere's silicone straps are excellent 👍. Equipped with a classic, timeless design, they are soft, supple, comfortable and wraps effortlessly around the wrist whilst providing much needed ventilation with cutouts on the underside of the straps. They do not collect lint easily as well. At just $15USD each, they provide tremendous value proposition as you're getting a well-made strap with signed buckle and a 1yr warranty. These straps are perfect for sports and outdoor activities.

Free shipping in SG and key in discount code "WATCHROLOGY" to get 20% off.

Good for those seeking an affordable Isofrane-styled strap. Support local company!!

The LHD looks really gorgeous, although I can't get past the crown position personally. I think it may be one of those things which you gotta try it to love it.

I think a Blue Pelagos will suit you and your collection very nicely. Regarding the crown, I wasn't really sure if I can warm up to it but I got used to it really quickly.

A Blue Pelagos can be had for low 4K and there really isn't much that can compete with it. In-house chronometer movement, ceramic bezel, killer lume and Rolex quality.

Hmmm have not tried any of those but it's definitely better than some run-off the mill rubber strap that I've tried before that are pricier. The only rubber strap that I've had is the Everest strap but that is $200 and is definitely not 10x better than this Straposphere strap.
Then again, 1 Rolex is arguably not 50x better than a SKX007..

Actually I also wonder if over the long term it'll lead to bracelet chain stretch. Mine being the older (green, furry) one means it also gets very sorry when I use it often. In the end I just place my watch on the box. Should probably look into getting a cheapo watch box.

Lol too much stress to own an rolex.
With solid links and end links, bracelet stretch should be your last Concern.

Am interested to buy the black bay bronze blue... Any retailers in SG? TIA

I think it's only sold exclusively through the Bucherer boutique in Lucerne, Switzerland. Also not sure if they make anymore of those.
