Researching strap options for my new watch. Here's one from my current collection.

Anyone have Rubber B strap on their Sea Dweller? Please share photos if you do.

I just order this red/black strap from them. It works with the Guidelock, which is pretty cool!

Both look great; I'd choose the RubberB due to the deployant clasp.

So, I ordered the RubberB strap for my Sea Dweller 43 - the black & red one that uses the Glidelock deployant. It's inbound now!

I also couldn't help but order a cheapie strap from Ebay. Also red and black w/ curved ends to fit the SD (I hope). It just arrived. I'm waiting on my Bergeon pliers to try this on...

Oh, and it came with the watch tool in the photo! Not quite Bergeon quality, but prolly useful for something.

These look great. I'm thinking about getting a rubber for my 43mm but it will need to be a top quality strap with serious spring bars to carry the weight of this monster...

Look at RubberB & Everest. As far as I know, all can use your original spring bars.

Has anyone tried the swim skins by RubberB? It looks like a serious strap if you wear in the water a lot. And also looks comfortable. I am thinking about trying one.

I have the rubber B, and it’s fantastic! It’s actually more comfortable than my submariner, with this set up.

It was surprising, just how much more comfortable it made the watch. Now it’s my go to over the others.
