Explorer II glidelock

Hello!!

I am new to the forum

I recently purchased an Explorer II 216570 and have added a Rubber B strap. I love the look but I’ve been having issues with the fit. My sub has been great with the glide lock clasp to make adjustments. Can anyone recommend a aftermarket Glide lock style clasp that I could use with the rubber b on my explorer. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!

Thanks!

Another OEM option would be to source a half link. That was what I did for my Expy II until I broke down and sourced a glidelock. Good luck!

Edit: didn’t realize this was a Rubber B specific request, sorry!!

I’ve just bought an original Rolex glidelock and I’m using it with my Daytona 116500ln and polish the center it looks awesome. For me the glide lock clasp ahould be on every Rolex...

Yes. Glidelock on every single Rolex. No exceptions.

Thanks for responses

Any ideas to find an Aftermarket glidelock? Would like to stick with original Rolex but availability and high cost are an issue. I could take of my SUb but then wouldn’t be able to wear it when I rotate watches.
