Hi, guys, I wear now my 14060M on a medium brown croco and find it quite nice and much less "sport" than with a bracelet.
But still guess what is the best way to wear it, on a croco or on a rabbit?

Here some pics for make an idea...

Submariner 14060M on a croco

Submariner 14060M on a rabbit (called Terminator...)

Thanks for help

Akira, I'm used to wearing my Sub on the bracelet, but that's a pretty nice combo!

Diving watches look terrible on straps and other bands .... there is a reason they come with Stainless Steel bracelet ... putting a rolex diver on a strap made of croco, rabbit, racoon, birds, tiger, killer whale, elephant, godzilla.....just ruins 90% of the looks and makes the watch look weak ....straps should be reserved for wannabe watches full of hot air, like the Daytona, Tudors and Cellinis ....not for legendary icons like the Sub or the SD ....

I would have to dissagree with some of your post.
I often wear my 14060M on a leather band. I think it looks pretty good and it is very comfortable to wear. Also it also goes under the rader when needed.

I was going to say I've seen a nice one with black leather somewhere and it turned out yours, love it Simon

Zed Homme · 30 July 2010, 11:02 PM

I love the pics! I tend to keep my Rolex divers either on the bracelet or a NATO. My Panerai Submersible however sees everything from croc and calf to osterich and chicken leg....

slevin kelevra · 30 July 2010, 11:06 PM

I actually quite like the croc strap! Didnt think I would but its pretty cool!

The rabbit pics are the funniest thing i have seen in ages!!

isiah · 30 July 2010, 11:17 PM

Great pics man. I like watches on leather straps, but your SUB would look better if you will put it on black croc strap, brown strap and black bezel do not match each other in my opinion but if you like it and it works for you that's what counts. Your rabbit is awesome!

Dr. Robert · 31 July 2010, 02:02 AM

I love reptile skin watch straps.....but not on the sub....bracelet, NATO or rubber strap are the only ones, IMHO, that look good on subs!

rmfnla · 31 July 2010, 02:09 AM

Akira, you are a very twisted individual!

I like that...

al_bongo · 31 July 2010, 12:09 AM

Really not working for me. Complete mismatch between watch and strap.
Nice rabbit though.

fc3s2k · 31 July 2010, 12:33 AM

To mr sub it's bracelet or black NATO only

+1 but any NATO not just black. Great pics though, especially the rabbit!

ersnyder · 31 July 2010, 12:46 AM

I gotta say, the whole setup looks pretty good to me! I really didn't expect to like it but I did!! The rabbit? Well, that's another matter for another forum.

chris russell · 31 July 2010, 12:59 AM

What the...??

echau · 31 July 2010, 01:10 AM

I'd put my 14060M on a NATO if I could, but my straps from TF don't seem to fit through the narrow gap between the spring bar and the case...

cajunron · 31 July 2010, 10:06 AM

I wonder if this is the first ever rabbit to wear a Rolex?

landeriv · 31 July 2010, 02:46 PM

It looks good to me. Very classy combo!

VincentR · 31 July 2010, 08:19 PM

Akira... maybe you should try the rabbit instead ;)

I do like the sub on crocs though, but maybe I would prefer it on a steel belt.

slevin kelevra · 8 September 2010, 05:26 AM

To the OP, Could you tell us what kind of strap that is and where its available??

I really like it!

Neither. Watch on a cock is still the best way to go...

Please. No jokes about the size of my cock. It was a specially made Yacht Master (500 mm), that is why the cock looks so small...

Art 1 · 8 September 2010, 06:32 AM

Bracelet for me.

utc66 · 8 September 2010, 07:56 AM

Although the combo doesn't really match for me, that croc strap does look really good, who is the maker?

Sunshine · 8 September 2010, 11:45 AM

I like the sub. Love the bunny!!
