Combo Rolex vs custom ABP for Daytona

Had meant to pick one up when the discontinued the dial, but had other commitments at the time and had to pass.The standard strap it comes on is a bit too loose for my liking, even with the clasp adjusted. I know some members have had similar issues and ended up buying the short strap and then mixing the two for a better fit and centered clasp. For those folks - was the colour and grain match between the straps good?

Price wise, not too far off and their reputation seems good.Any input and/or photos regarding either option would be appreciated.
