Everest Rolex Band / Strap Opinion ?

[socialpro]

How is the quality on the everest bands (in particular the leather versions)? Lets hear some opinions and see some pics from those who have this on their Rolex!

I like it far more than I thought I would. I usually prefer the oyster and my watches end up back on it. Lately, this everest has been stealing the show.


I've tried it on other models too

I was disappointed in the curved-end alligator strap I bought. It didn't properly fit my smaller 6.75"-inch wrist, even though they specifically assured me it would, and frankly it just wasn't a $400 strap. It wasn't terrible, but it also wasn't what I'd have expected for the money, and it now sits in a drawer unused.

I just put the tang version on my subc and it's great. I never liked the gridlock at work (I'm in IT), as my wrist is on a desk typing or doing work, with the Everest, its like it's not there.

A subC on a leather Everest excellent quality product

I took the plunge for an Everest for my Daytona. Gotta say I love the look and fit.

That looks great. The band is very fitting to the watch.

This is the one I am specifically considering -- not sure what color to get it in...as they have tan, brown, and a few black versions...

They are very comfortable and the quality is pretty high. For me personally, I enjoy bracelets more though.

I have a smaller wrist and the Everest leather didn't fit well. It was too thick and frankly not that comfortable for me. That being said, their rubber straps to me are unbeatable.

I have a collection of rubber straps and one leather strap I use in my Explorer II. Great quality and comfort. I highly recommend them for a change of pace.

I have numerous rubber bands that are all top notch! I just got my first leather strap
From them recently and while the look is not my favorite of all configurations, I do believe it's quite handsome and the quality is amazing!

I have tried 3 Everest leather straps with tang buckle and do have 6.5" wrist. I can't say it fit particularly well.

Then tried Rubber B and haven't looked back. So now have 3 Bs. Much better fit and very comfortable, more so than the Oyster bracelet IMHO.

Cheers

I like some of the looks but I just cant deal with some of the gaps that the everest bands leave in between the watch and band. Here's a comparison between the blue one posted earlier and the rubberb I have on my Daytona. I know it's not great to compare on two separate watches but the devil is in the details. I'd love to set up a comparison on the same watch to see what the pros and cons of both are.

I realize people like them, but that one on the right does not look like a high quality strap to me. Look at how irregular the stitching is. I wouldn't be happy with that for the $250 or whatever they charge.

The band is made/bought for the 16610, it just happens to fit this 114300, albeit with a bit of a gap.
