But no different than others. It's pliable and just needs a few more days to mold to my wrist.
The attachment to the case is a standard springbar. I think the blue dial is the same. My original Chronometer had the well engineered structural strap, which inserted into the case bottom. Very strong, but it limited the strap from flexing right out of the case. I found it OK for me, but this will be better.
