I followed Ken's advice below and got one of these straps from Seth Levine (of M-Classics Bag fame.) I also took some other LUGger's advice (sorry don't remember who) and broke the strap in with some Lexol. I love it. I had to place hardware on it so that it would fit the strange lugs on my M5, but otherwise it is a great strap for the M6. And the price would be hard to beat even for a strap of much lesser quality. Carpe Luminem, Michael E.
