The watch with the rubber band has the same price as the metal band?
I would like to buy the one with rubber but it shuld be cheaper as you have no metal band but rubber!!!
So i enquire Drop...
While I can't disagree with you, the pricing isn't up to drop, that's the vendor. And they are't identical watches minus strap/bracelet, but believe retail was the same.
Even when I like a watch and prefer to see it on a leather strap (I don't do rubber), I prefer to buy the watch with bracelet and buy a 3rd party or custom strap as original bracelet is usually cheaper to get with the watch than buy afterwards. But to your point, I could also pick up a bracelet for $50 or so that would look fine, but prefer the manufacturers bracelet. But if I was buying second hand or could only get in on the rubber strap at this price, I'd probably consider the 3rd party strap. But I like the dial that is coming on the bracelet model and that's what I've got coming.
I have an IWC from the 90s bought it new from the grey market. I have a Zenith Elite from the 90s also that I bought 3 years ago in a auction. I am the same I have a few cheaper watches as well as a few that cost a bit more. Bought them over many years so they did not hit my pocket too hard
TwilightCitizenThey had this drop months ago but I think they only had 1 or 2 watches of each version. I wanted to pick up the white dial with blue Arabic numbers but it sold out before I woke up. They are just trying to unload the model that didn't sell which is the ugliest one in my opinion.

Judging by the posts below, at least on this drop you’ll have a 50/50 shot of getting the watch you ordered.
This is an ok buy at $750, but not great. I’ve seen these as low as $599 on flash sales.
They DEFINITELY sent me the wrong one - I ordered NM2088c-S9J-BKRD - which came with black strap, they sent me NM2088c-PJ-BKRD - metal strap, and an added logo on face for St. Petersburg Havana boat race which I'm not a fan of - Waiting to hear if they can put right.
Yes, unfortunately, the information from Massdrop is that they are unable to assist in rectifying this issue although they will in fact be in possession of both watched and would just need to re-post. Actually, I'm quite turned off re: this entire drama and will just be returning mine - well, actually "yours" - for a refund as well. That way we can both be disappointed and left wondering why MD shows so little interest in correcting the mistake on their end and would rather allow two customers go through all this hassle.
Better luck next time as it's evidently really is hit or miss dealing with this outfit.
Cheers.
