Hey, all. Wondering if anyone knows or has seen any catalogs/ads indicating that Enicar sold the Guide (MK2) with a Tropic as one of the strap options. In some original advertisements, I see the Guide offered with the beads-of-rice bracelet (and I have a few of them with that bracelet) as well as a simple calf-leather black strap (particularly on the 33-jewel-movement variants).
I've certainly seen Guides with rubber straps out in the world, but I've been trying to figure out if they were ever an official option or if that was an after-sales customization. (for example, I've seen 22 mm Tropics with Enicar signed buckles, and I'm assuming that that *could've* been from a Guide - but perhaps it's really for one of the diver offerings).
Any insight into this would be greatly appreciated if anyone knows!
