accents on the dial.
personally i hate rubber straps, they just dont feel right on my wrist AND i have a red strap on my BRM V12-44 with red hands, so i'm biased
i also worry about rubber longevity. in the past i've with casio's etc and the straps get knackered quickly. i've got a B & R phantom coming and i've already bought a leather strap for it. the rubber one can stay in the box until i want to sell it again.
i would say to live with it for a bit to see if you get used to it.
