As I mentioned in another forum, I think the best rubber strap for the Scorpionfish would be the Bonetto Cinturini 322, in either black or orange.
This also happens to be the exact OEM rubber provided in the L'ocean kit.
So true. I plan on slapping mine on a 322 first thing.

Looking at the lug nuts/pins - is a scredriver needed to change straps?
will it be included in the set?
 
This is really a nice deal on a good looking watch the 2 things holding me back from pulling the trigger are the case looks kind of flat with no curvature and I wish there was no bracelet taper or at least a 24/22 taper instead of the taper from 24mm to 20mm at buckle.

Understand your points but it really works well the tapering from 24mm to 20mm and watch sits comfortably.

For instance one of the grail of grails the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore tapers from 28mm to 20mm.

Thanks, I'm thinking about also getting the white dial. BTW this picture of your husband wearing the black dial version looks like it's gray in color. (I know it's actually black) I think a gray dial with a gray bezel would make a very nice alturnative if you ever produce more at a later date. I certainly would buy one.

 
Excited to have both the white and black dial versions on pre-order! Fantastic looking watches/specs for the price and they will make an excellent addition to the collection. Both style of hands look great - I initially ordered both watches with the modern hands, but after looking at the pics more, the plongeur hands "sang" to me and Maria was able to update my order for me. All 4 versions look fantastic - congrats to all who have one on order!

I agree, a bracelet that tapers from 24mm to 20mm looks much better with the scorpionfish. With this configuration, it gives more emphasis on the watch rather than the bracelet.

Hi Maria, do you or anyone else knows if the bracelet from the Maranez Kata would fit on the Scorpionfish? I have the Kata, the L'Ocean and have pre-ordered this too. Don't want to remove the bracelet from the L'Ocean, hence asking about the Kata.

Hi there,
I am not really a bracelet person, but I was actually thinking the exact same thing !
I have the Kata, and would really love to fit that bracelet on to the Scorpionfish too.
I think it would look fantastic on the Scorpionfish !
I believe it just might work.

I can not tell if it fits or not as I am not the owner of the other 2 brands. That is something you have to try if it fits or not once the Scorpionfish gets delivered.

Discussions should really focus on the Scorpionfish and not comparing to Maranez or Crepas or ZRC as I believe there is space for all.

Hi Maria, no offence was intended. I have had and will have a few Borealis watches aswell as Prometheus ones.
I was just wondering as though I like the Borealis bracelet, I prefer theother one. I hope you weren't annoyed?

This sentence is a bit self-contradictory;)

anyway, focusing on the scorpionfish - could you specify what will be included in the set, apart from the screwdriver (great news) and the watch itself?
