Even though I only own watches with leather straps and prefer them for the most part but the Octo is an exception. I would certainly get both to have the option.

Do You Prefer the Bulgari Octo on a Leather Strap or Metal Band?

Bulgari Octo - Leather Strap or Metal Band? I have heard several people express fondness for the Bulgari Octo Watch, even people who are not fans of Bulgari watches to begin with. When I first saw the watch live while sipping a spritzer outdoor on a warm ...
Can I have both please?

Make them interchangeable to suit different occasions like the Panerai crowd do.
tough choice
By: Asad A Awan : September 10th, 2013-23:28
indeed tough choice as I am a leather strap person, but this is the rare occassion where the bracelet look just goes so well with the overall high tech metal structural/industrial look of the watch :) regards, asad

"I would buy the bracelet version and then buy the leather strap so I have both. Sorry I didn't pick either one or the other. This is the rare case where I would want both!" There is nothing to add to Anthonys statement! But for this case I would buy the ...

........ leather strap for that Roman elegant feeling. The metal bracelet is pretty good for those warm humid days but gives a more machismo look and may be bulky. If getting both, it is best to buy the bracelet version and get the leather strap as a chea...

Something I never understand
By: Spellbound : September 17th, 2013-05:20
I never understand why many brands go to such lengths to make a watch waterproof and then put a croc strap on it. Even divers from some brand have straps that would clearly not handle water so well. These beautiful Octo's are water resistant to 100m, so t...

I find almost every watch that is hex (ish) shaped... to look too much like an AP when you choose strap option. (Not tanks, of course, but ya know...) (For example, even GO's Seventies has hopped on the bandwagon with strap choices, emphasizing the AP-loo...
Nice watches
