Having Fun w/ Everest Straps

Had some extra time last night and wanted to change up a few of my pieces. Which new look do you prefer - YM40 on leather or SD4K on rubber?

A nice look either way. A refreshing change of pace on a strap.

Nice! I like the Yachtmaster:)

What are those clear plastic or rubber looking watch cases?

Bezel protectors. They are a bit more substantial than the originals and they come with matching clasp protectors for storage.

I agree. Should be a fun experiment to see how I like it.

Nice! Can you throw us a clasp pic? Always like seeing the fit and finish of the straps there.

Looking good! I’ve been a customer of theirs since they launched. Great straps.

The rubber makes it even more comfortable. Glad I went with option to retain the clasp to help balance the weight of the case.
