Everest straps, any experience?
Hi everybody,
I love my 114060 on the awesome steel bracelet, but I have always liked to wear my watches on leather as well. I stumbled upon the curved end straps from Everest, I especially like the leather straps with the steel endlinks, looks really cool, not cheap however. Any feedback is really appreciated, thanks in advance! Eric |

Found some feedback in the Review-section, but pictures of an Everest strap on a 114060 would be really appreciated ;)

I never owned or tried the end link/leather combo from everest, but I own the full tang rubber strap for my 116610LV and the quality is top notch. Everest is also a great company that I am happy to give my business. I think they are offering 20% off right now. I'll try to find the promotion. For you.

I have the blue rubber version for my 116619 and it's really comfortable. I prefer it over the RubberB that was on my DSSD.

I've just learned about this strap. If the promotion is rare, I may just proceed to buy now. Otherwise, I would like to look around and do some comparison in some shops. Thank you. |

Is this promotion considered good? Do they often have discount?

Greetings
I have the leather deployant version on my Explorer II and once I got the correct fit I have grown to really appreciate wearing it. It is a quality piece and the company is first class as well. YMMV, b |

SS Daytona on Everest leather with end links. Great quality, I'm very pleased and think it looks great. I'd buy without a second thought.

Is there anywhere in NYC that sells Everest or RubberB straps? It would be good to see them in person before buying as I am torn between the tang buckle version or the one that incorporates the oyster clasp.

I know their is a dealer of RubberB straps in the Diamond District "World of Watches". They are listed on RubberB's site as an authorized dealer and I've been there a few times he runs a good business.

Eric, I have two sets of Everest straps, the EH-1 version (past sku number, but should fit your watch). It came with a blacked out tang clasp that was included. I sold the Sub many a moon ago and they are collecting dust. If they fit your watch, PM me your address and you can have them. I wore it for a month straight, no issues.

Everest bands are awesome; recently bought the brown and black leather bands with white stitches shown below. I'm currently using them on my Explorer, very happy with the look and the quality of them.

I have got the leather rubber B for my Explorer, but can not convince myself to change it - like the steel bracelet way better.

Thanks.
Here's an experiment: Three layers of paper and two different Everest straps on a 16570. |
