I like the looks and it fits the lugs very nicely.
As my wrist is thin, I often cut straps to size, if they are the right material.

RESPECT!!!
Clearly you have extremely high standards, because your strap looks perfect to me! I still have a ways to go to meet your knife skills, but this is the result of taking an X-Acto knife to mine... ...
Try reversing the strap with the long end attached at 12.
I wear my straps this way and enjoy seeing the tail peeking at me on the inside of my wrist. And, it's not so noticeable to others. In addition, I think the fit is better (on my wrist at least) as the watch sits more centered on my wrist. Just something e...
