I like it and would have no problem wearing it. That would look good with swimming attire on the beach or with a Tux at some formal event. :) ;)

I dont know about others, I woud have a really hard time keeping that white strap clean. No matter how hard I try, dirt seems to always find my clothing. :?

Doesn't do it for me. The all-white is a little feminine (although that's probably just my preconceptions).

New strap for sure. Looks pretty "gangsta" with the white strap - which isn't necessarily a bad thing, just not my thing.

Very nice, love the style of the watch especially the white bezel, it's different, but I have to agree with the others, not big on the white strap. As a matter of fact didn't the white strap come up as part of a vote at the beginning of the summer?? It didn't fare to well there. http://www.timetechtalk.com/view_topic.php?id=12974&forum_id=30&highlight=white+straps

I don't know Pax. As a diver, it just seems like it should have a black dial and bezel. Maybe though, it would be very visable at fifty fathoms. I agree with others on the strap though. White would soon be a muddy gray on my wrist.

Looks like a new category here - the "tuxedo diver". By which I mean the head, not the strap. I reckon that white strap would look pretty iffy poking out under a french cuff while wearing a tux, but on the right strap, it would be a cracker. As for teh head alone - white on white with polished SS and a red tipped second hand with that funky (good) domed acrylic to the bezel - that does it for me every time. On an aftermarket croc strap or on SS it would appeal more to manly men I would reckon - but I would certainly be prepared to give it a go as is - if y'all want to send me one to try for a couple of years!! Having seen the all black, this one literally pales by comparison IMVHO. But I decided a couple of months ago to add some white faced watches to my collection and this would be a good addition. Hmmm... 10/10 for the watch head - 2/10 for the strap. But I still prefer the all black version which I rate at a conservative 12 out of 10. I also like black cars... :D Cheers all - IanM

The design is nice, but all-white is a bit too "Stanley Kubrick" for me. (For all you non-film buffs, Stanly wrote and directed 2001: A Space Odyssey, in '68, where every frickin thing in the movie was white on white—there are scenes where you literally had to look away for a moment just to save your retinas from burning.)

White strap is overkill. With a black strap I think it would be fine.
