Last night's project went well
Figured I would give the Rubber B a try last night probably keep it on for a few weeks, I dont recall seeing anyone putting one on a BLNR. What does everyone think?

Beautiful fit, is that the buckle from your SS bracelet? Does it have to be modified to fit the strap?

Funny; the color of the band doesn't quite match the blue of the insert in the first two shots, but is spot on in the third; just goes to show how you can't judge based on a photo.
Look terrific, BTW!

You should put a black strap on the top side, and leave the blue strap on the bottom. Color coordination to the max!
It looks great! Do you like the feel better than a metal bracelet? |

It does feel different some, a little more comfy imho. However looking down at it all day today the bracelet has a much better look to it. So will see how long I want to leave it on. |

Hi guys quick question, where is the best place to buy rubber straps from for the BLNR? Do you get them from your AD or on the Internet and roughly cost wise? Thanks

I purchased mine here on TRF or Google Rubber B it will take to the website for them. I dont belive the AD's will carry them.

looks great, i bet the blue strap would look very nice too! 16613 on blue... It is a blue strap... Navy i'm guessing and would match the bezel color better than the one on my Sub, great job!

Much respect to to everyone on this thread, but I guess I just don't get it. An $8000 watch on a piece of $2.00 rubber.
That's part of what makes this place great, though. You get to see things you would never personally consider. Different strokes... Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD |
