It's the rubber strap of the pelagos. Found it cheaper on the WUS forums and managed to get my local AD at the time in Geneva to sell me the OEM endlinks of the blackbay even though I had bought mine on the leather. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Nice! I see you wore it like the leather strap with the tail end at 12 o'clock. I kinda followed the way it was shown on the rubber b site and I like the way it looks. I will play with switching sides soon enough I'm sure.    Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |

Thanks. Funny, I put it on that way at first but it felt awkward putting it on, so I switched it. I'm sure I would have gotten used to it the other way. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

You switched? LOL I did too with the tail now on the inside as I flipped buckle's side. It seems to snap in more effortlessly and buckle is more centered.  Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

The BB steel looks better on nato or straps imo, and it looks fantastic on that nato!

Rubber B on BBN. I like it, but the buckle side of the Rubber B is significantly shorter than the Tudor leather. The buckle is pretty far off center on my 8" wrist. Had been wearing it on a black Isofrane this summer, which is a great rubber strap. Going to wear it a while and see if I get used to it. I've tried it with buckle on 6 and 12.

Took me 4 years but I can no play on this thread with the other kids. None of these are unique but a fun weekend watch all the same. Wearing it right now in fact. I seem to have quite acidic skin, I get a green mark on my wrist some of the time and it certainly has gone dark quickly which is fine my me.

Going to my AD today & hopefully have the pelagos rubber fitted , but the AD did ring me and said he wasn't sure if the rubber will fit into the BB steel end links without some minor modification to the rubber . Well there's only one way to find out, so off to the AD I will go , I will update later if its a success or not .

Just joined the BB Steel club too (and this forum)!
Thinking about getting the Rubber B strap, anyone know if you can buy just the deployant clasp from Tudor? |
