AP band rubber strap experience?


So I've been waiting for the ad in uk to confirm the waiting time of my grey rubber strap.
Today saw these at a store and the seller told me this is the same quality as AP strap but I personally thought the quality wasn't good wonder what's your thought and experience is it true that they make strap for AP?

OEM for AP. No matter what part of the watch it is.

I ordered some kind of blue rubber strap a few months after getting my diver, not AP band, for 50 bucks, to see if it would look nice on blue, but when I liked it I got a OEM strap for 300 euros.
Having a 50$ strap on a 20+ K watch seemed off to me.

Well I have both a Pam and AP. I'm a compulsive buyer of straps for my Pam. I don't think a strap should be thrown out because there cheaper. If the strap is good and does it job then it should be worn. I have $600 straps and $150 straps and I like them both.

Sure, but the one I bought was 50$ seen better quality

Horus straps out of Miami seem to have a good product....in the $200+ range but heard the quality is very good - nice designs too IMHO.
