Sub on black leather/rubber Pics Wanted

Hey guys, anyone have some good shots of a Sub on a black leather or rubber strap? Thinking of adding more options to my Sub strap lineup.

New, old - all are welcome.

Larry, those are awesome. A little more dressy than I think I'm going for now but, an idea. Perhaps I could get a black aligator with the folded metal clasp. How much are these from Rolex.

For the rest - let's see some rubber or plain black leather or hirsch straps!

**OT!!** GMT IIc on leather strap!

I know you've recently bought a GMT IIc and considered buying an extra bracelet for stining. Unfortunately I don't have any pics of a sub on a strap, but there was a request earlier for a GMT on a leather strap...

I was duly impressed!!

Note: Not my pic (sourced from TZ forum)

That's a brave man Jos.

I kinda like the look of the GMT on the black leather strap and I think a SS Sub Date would look much better though on it... Just need to see those.

I did see Jocke's Green/Black Hirsch.

No rubber straps though. Not sure if they make any - haven't seen any good ones online.

Not a fan of straps on most sport models. I didn't like the TT on the Alligator strap at all but the GMT on the black leather wasn't too bad. I think a cool rubber strap like the one with the two humps like Omega makes for the SMP's would look sharp on a Sub as it looks good on the 2254's.

Very nice carbon fiber!

Where is this one from and how much?

Oh and Jos - where is that alligator one from and how much? I love the white stitching on both.

Maybe I'll get a rubber one and leather + the carbon fiber???

the carbon fiber is Hirsch, not easy to find in Asia, i guess it's easy to find in state.

Hope I can post my pics. They're no good, but at least it's a sub on rubber band.

Very confortable, and after 21 years with the Oyster band, it looks to me like a different watch. Oh, and it was only $0.01

After looking at them all, I love the alligator with the white stitching. Actually black plain, croc, or carbon fiber are all nice with the white stitching...

Would love to know where to find that croc strap with the white stitching.
