I just put a rubber b on my sub c and noticed that the bezel is a lot harder to turn. I assume this is because the rubber is pushing slightly against the bezel.

With the bracelet there used to be a bit of play (push it down and it sprung back up) but this no longer happens.

I know I am being paranoid but just wanted to check if anyone had any long term experiences with rubber b or everest and if this has a long term impact on the bezel rotation?

I haven't but id send that back if true and tell them. Maybe you got a bad strap or it is an inherent production flaw. Either way a sub with a bezel that doesn't operate as designed is a waste. It may not effect the function of the bezel long term, doubt it would.

That doesn't sound right. I believe they make different sizes. Maybe they sent you the wrong size?

Had the same problem. They suggested I use different springbars. The return policy is horrible. If you can get a refund buy Everest.

Doesn't sound right. It must be putting some friction on the bezel.
