Looking for a rubber strap (hate saying rubber band) for a Black ceramic Daytona. Yes I know keep it on the SS bracelet. Have ton of watches on Oyster and Jubilee want this piece on rubber. Also understand the oysterflex wont fit the SS ceramic Daytona.

Everest is another company which I've heard makes good straps.

Oysterflex will fit but will be hard to source. Everest and others make aftermarket rubber straps made to fit and Smarty makes endlinks to complete the look.

U just need an AD who likes you.

leooooo · 5 November 2019, 03:28 AM

Is this a serious question or a humblebrag? Lol

Go Rubber B. I have one on my Black Daytona C - looks great!

Original OF with smarty end links, OR Rubber B Swim Shark style with smarty endlinks.

Ghost410 · 5 November 2019, 04:28 AM

Everest bands are gorgeous and incredible quality

lamnyc · 5 November 2019, 04:29 AM

I was told $550 for the pair. You will still need a pair of endlinks. I was going to do that but it cost way too much for me.

blankapdx · 5 November 2019, 09:18 AM

Can't go wrong with RubberB. Looks great and very comfortable.

Seibei · 5 November 2019, 09:19 AM

Everest!

othertbone · 5 November 2019, 09:20 AM

Yep these are the three options

bravetony · 6 November 2019, 12:44 AM

Rubber B for me too. I've been hounding my brother to get this combo. I think the color matching of the stripe and de red DAYTONA looks super. But I have my sd43 on a black/red rubberb combo so the jerk won't pull the trigger because of that. Quite the sibling I got.....

Gary Busey · 6 November 2019, 03:07 AM

Always use a rubber in Daytona

scubadds · 6 November 2019, 03:18 AM

Could someone post pictures of an Everest or Rubber B options and clasps?

You don't need end links with the OF strap or Rubber B strap.

Does anyone know if there's a suitable rubber strap for the steel 116520 / 116500 daytona that is straight on its ends (i.e. usable with smarty endlinks..) and also uses a Tang buckle?

I know rubberb offers 2 versions of its strap.

One for the rose-gold 116515 daytona (and very much resembles the oysterflex in design) - but I was told the clasp-end of the straps will not fit the SS daytona clasp, and only fits the original RG clasp for the 116515.

One for the WG 116519 daytona (swimskin "alligator" rubber / ballistic) - but also only works with an SS daytona clasp - and not tang. This strap also does not cosmetically resemble the clean look of the oysterflex.

I'd like to find a strap that looks much like the OysterFlex, but uses a tang buckle so that I can retain the oem clasp on the bracelet. It also removes the variability from trying to determine the right strap size..

garyk · 25 September 2020, 07:11 AM

Whatever floats your boat. I like the contrast the rubber straps create...

antelope · 25 September 2020, 07:33 AM

I went with Rubber B and its perfect. Would highly recommend

Triad900 · 25 September 2020, 10:10 AM

I went with RubberB as well and it fits perfect. My friends like to call it the panther when I wear it.
