Explorer II 42mm on RubberB VulChromatic

Almost went solid orange, but the hint of mandarin was more my style.

I honestly didn't think I would like it but I do. I sure would love to see some more photos.

yes, not bad at all. I have a rubberB on my Sub as well. I can't wear metal band in one of the buildings at work, so the Explorer was getting very little wrist time. The VulChromatic is my answer to that problem.

Health and Safety, I am an IT manager for a large manufacturing facility, they think a metal band won't break if caught on something, but non metallic will.
Makes zero sense to me, but HSE people rarely do.

figured it was something like that. watch is still metal as well as the clasp. figure your hand or arm is toast before the rubber band breaks. LOL

Looks really nice Kevin.
The RubberB is a very comfortable strap.
