20/16mm rubber strap

Hi,

Where can I get a 20/16mm rubber strap to fit my 16mm rolex buckle?

I have changed many gen leather strap but due to my work nature, I perspire a lot and the strap usually don't last.

Tried to find online are all 20/18mm or 20/20mm.

Thanks

Is it me or do those vintage Tropiks feel really flimsy with a Sub/GMT on them? I had one from the 60's I thought would look really cool on my Sub but when I put it on, it didn't feel quite right. Just not very substantial, very thin.
Great look though.

If you plan to let go the strap I would be most willing to get from you.
