I have a Rubber B on my Rolex Explorer II polar dial. I have black strap with the orange stripe accent, with Rolex clasp system. I love the strap, and I've never gone back and replaced my Rubber B with the original Rolex 904L bracelet.

I have the rubberb with tang buckle on my 16570. I love the look and comfort. I have to say, I was a little disappointed for the price. Maybe I was hoping to get something as comfortable as the PP 5167 strap, but I haven't found a rubber strap quite as comfortable as the 5167. Still my 16570 won't be coming off the RubberB anytime soon, so I can't say I regret the purchase. Just a little different from what I was expecting.

I bought off a rubber band of the brand, yes it's pricey but worth it

I had one on my previous DSSD for a while. It is comfortable and I like the design of the strap but its a lot of money for what it is. The rubber is quite stiff too and not as comfortable in use as the more supple silicon AP and Breitling straps I've had. The buckles on the Rubber B are not particularly well finished either. All in all nice straps but not worthy of their hefty price tag.

I've been contemplating an Everest strap for my BLNR but I love the hint of blue in the rubberB option
However, I've heard from multiple people that the Everest rubber is much more flexible and comfortable than the rubberB one.

Has anyone ever tried both? thanks!

I just put a RubberB on my 114060.

I'm very well pleased.

Is it expensive? Considering the watch costs 6+k$'s, no, I don't think so

And I do feel it is very high quality.

Super comfortable and I much prefer this look of it.

I do think that some models, it just doesn't go well with. But that's obviously very subjective.
