Well most any 20mm rubber strap will be fine as today a high price dont always get you quality.Some of the best rubber straps for very hard wearing are from Citizen and Seiko.But there are many brands out there today to pick and choose.Some of the best I have tried at any price were from Eddie Platts at timefactors. Excellent quality for very good prices and Eddie is one of the good guys to deal with. http://www.timefactors.com/rubber.htm

Not exactly rubber, and I don't know what your use is, but I LOVE the Maratac Elite composite straps.

Isofrane just came out w/a 20mm rubber strap.
They are most excellent straps.

Hirsch has a rubber strap in its Leonardo line that has curved ends.

As mentioned, the Isofranes are spectacularly nice.

I have bought a few straps from panatime (not rubber) and have been very impressed with the quality and price!

Another vote for Isofrane from me

Do a search on 20mm Tropic.

You may not like this style, but thee are others.

Are you kidding? You should look at "Rubber B" for Rolex. They're made only for the Rolex case and buckle. I just ordered a second one for my Sub after having received one for my GMT and SS Daytona, and not being disappointed. The Rubber B straps are pricey, but my Rolex's deserve only the best… I'll enjoy these straps this summer for sure.

Don't do it! It'll look too much like an omega!

I'm sorry, man, but you can put Octo-Mom and Charlize Theron in the same dress, and I can guarantee they won't look the same!! (No offense to Omega or Octo-Mom by the way.)

But a Rolex is in a design category of its own…. I got Vulcanized Rubbers for most of my Rolex's collection this summer, and a white one for my wife's YG Daytona- it'll be better on the beach and I won't have to chunk out the insane cash for the usual bracelet polish in September. (She's picky as hell).
