Stumbled upon a strap supplier on the net called "Strap Code", and after a little bit of search turns out they are based locally (Hong Kong) so I visited their re-seller to add some flavors to my beloved Red 12.
She was originally "dressed up" with a very formal band (oiled calf) and very dressy:
And I picked this new dress for her:
Very sporty I know. But as we all know the Red 12 is pretty versatile, so this is how she's transformed:
I like the difference myself, it wears quite soft and the polished buckle matches the case. As to whether I would be looking for another "dress" for the Red 12, probably yes
I also purchased this from the re-seller a PVD mesh for my IPB:
Its fitted now, and here's the transformation (apology for the over-exposed crappy phone pics)
Will wait and see how the PVD coated spring bars hold up to the scratches... fingers xx

Re: New strap for C9FLE and C600IPB
The C9 FLE looks good on both those straps, you are right a very versatile watch.
No more Quartz (except when I cannot resist).
