On the subject of the strap and buckle, they do the job of holding
link the watch on the wrist, but I think at least some new owners will eventually
link want to try the watch on something a bit finer-feeling as the supplied strap feels slightly heavy for the watch. The pin buckle, too, feels a bit
link heavy – certainly a much better choice for the watch than a deployant, though. I don't know that a full-on croc strap is necessary, but the watch feels as if it wants something a little bit less rustic.
