I think those are cool.
I never ever wear mine. I shouldn't have picked one up. It just sits.

Well technically the wife bought it for me.

^thanks Mark. The SuperCombat is a bit different that the standard Combat series. For starters, it is 45mm, as opposed to the 43 of the regular Combat series, it has an ETA movement with the second hand on its own smaller dial at the 6 o'clock position, it is PVD coated titanium so its super light, and the dial markings are 0-60. IMHO this piece simply must be worn with an antique leather strap or NATO. I wore it the whole time we were in hawaii last year with a NATO and really liked it on that strap. At home, its permantly on this GSD antique leather strap. I'll bring it with me so you can try it on. Maybe one of these would get more wrist time than the normal Combat you have

better? as in more comfortable?

any watch over $300 should have a strap that feels like melting butter on your skin IMO.

I'm with BigE on this one. I have the Combat B16 and the same Super Combat he has, and I never wear the Combat B unless I'm overseas. I wear the absolute HELL out of the Super Combat here in the US, on a Rob Montana WWII Ammo strap. LOVE that watch!
