Gold GMT on Rubber?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rolex-GMT-MA...ht_6917wt_1189
my brother wants this. I have never seen it offered on a band. I like it but was wondering if you guys know does it come this way or do you think it was done by the owner? |

Aftermarket. Rolex has never sold watches on rubber.

Aside from Rolex never making a rubber strap, the seller specifically states its aftermarket but the clasp is genuine. They aren't trying to fool you here.

It would look better on the Isofrane strap.....but they don't make it w/ a gold tang/buckle.

Isn't that a Rubber B? I'd be tempted to ask what he did with the gold oyster.

Yep looks like a Rubber-B strap to me !
It is listed as fitted with AM strap but genuine clasp. |

Looks well but why would you only get the clasp...where's the rest of the original bracelet? I'd demand answers. LOL

The seller states that it's an aftermarket strap. I think it looks pretty cool.

Might be a Rubber B strap. Whatever it is, it's beautiful and a pretty good deal. Gold on rubber sounds odder than it looks. Same goes for Attila's cordovan straps with gold Daytona's.
