Now I can't wait to get it, and I have to find a nice bracelet for it.  22mm right?

Nice to join the family of Orsa owners who hang out here.

Mark...congratulations on a great snag.  As to bracelets...the best most of us have found is the Watchadoo (22mm - yes) that is sand/bead blasted to match the case.  It is $70.  The bright and brush finishes are available for $50 if you can get it blasted for less.  They are "biddable" on ebay so you stand a chance of picking one up for less.

Here is a pic (photog unknown) of an Orangina on a blasted Watchadoo!



Ooh, that is nice on the watchadoo.  I've had several 'doos on various watches, and it is odd that I don't curently have one in my rotation.  Thanks for the heads up on the blasted finish... I was on autopilot and looking for a brushed finish.
