Does Selle Italia make the Diva without a cutout? I saw this and was interested as I've been looking at the Diva but do not want a cutout. Even though this company is in the UK, I'm willing to pay for shipping since this is the only Diva that I've seen without the enormous cut out. It does make me wonder if this saddle is "real" or a fake. Thoughts?

The catalog that came with my old Selle Italia does list two models:
Diva Flow (with a cutout) and the Diva (no cutout).
Edit: That catalog is probably 3 years old. The no-cut-out version appears to have been discontinued. :( However, you might be able to find new old stock, or people selling their old saddles.
Here's an E-bay listing: http://www.ebay.com/itm/SELLE-ITALIA...#ht_902wt_1037
And here's one for a white one (seconds, unfortunately, but who's going to be able to tell if your butt's on it?): http://www.ebay.com/itm/Selle-Italia...#ht_855wt_1037
Thanks Owlie! Just picked up the one on ebay that you linked to. Appreciate it!
I just received the Diva from Owlie's ebay link! Unfortunately it's been rainibg all weekend so I haven't had a chance to test it out. I'm hoping it's the one. I currently have a Specialized Lithia but I feel like it's too narrow. I can live* with the Lithia since my girly bits seems to be fine but my bum is sore. My Brooks B67 is on my folder and it's perfect but I wanted something different for my roadster.
Hey, did you wind up liking this? I'm considering this saddle. I'm having just sit-bone pains on my men's Selle Itaia Flite (fine for short trips, but most rides are ~60 miles and I'm DYING at end and can't get on a bike for two days at least). But yeah, since my "soft tissue" a/k/a girly bits are fine I think I want to stay away from cutouts.
