So it’s the orange counterpart of the yellow Apollo 8 strap.

I remember seeing it before and to be honest it helped me confirmed this is the reference I wanted! The racing speedy with this dial is not the most popular reference of the speedmaster but man do we love that orange accent! I still enjoy having the metal bracelet on this one but must admit this calf strap is a match made in heaven for that watch! Cheers my friend!
