It has a nice feel, looks great and has a nice finish... It went to the president of my Crew, and she loves it... I own ummm like four Suunto watches and I would not hesitate to buy a Lumi for my Girl.. Which is as good of a compliment as I can give.

The only thing that I want to find out is if the bands are interchangeable among the three styles. and then what is the difference between the three styles..

Hhmmm your thread seem to be quite. If you have not found the information, since it has been 2 years, i can help.

The straps have 2 types of fastening - wither buckle type or the clasp snap on type. There are 3 patterns on the straps - Sportif, Terra and Florette. Sportif I believe it is the basic, where it is plain colours of black, olive green and red. It uses the buckle fastening method

For Terra, there are 3D pertruded shapes on the watch strap, while the Florette are indented flower petal patterns on the strap. Both of these are double layered, so that you have 2 colour tones. These only with clasp fasterners. Probably 5 colours...

hope this helps...
