glad to hear non-bergeon works well, too (the brand name seems to add quite a bit to the cost!).

That Rubber looks really good on the LVC; that's the first non-OEM strap I have seen that I like on that watch.

Rubber is a great option. Wish it came standard on Rolex divers like the Tudor BB.

This looks GREAT!!!

I might need to try one out on my Hulk.

What size wrist are you?

Do the ISOfrane straps come in different lengths?

thanks
Hank

That looks pretty cool! Although I'd be hard pressed to switch out the bracelet. Love the glide lock.
