My SubC on a Rubber B

Hi guys love my SubC Date but as this piece was my first Rolex I kind of babied it lol.
Always loved the look of Oysterflex and went ahead and purchased the RubberB strap for it.
Feels good not worrying about desk/countertop knocks/scratches.

I did the same, but chose the blue RubberB instead. I ended up switching back to the bracelet as it looks better and wears more comfortably. I would be curious how the oysterflex compares to RubberB

Nice. What colours do you have? Share some pics


@ndrs63- thanks for sharing. Looks great. I agree oyster looks better but it’s definitely not uncomfortable!

I am heavily considering this for my TT sub. I hope you post more about it as you experience it more.

I’m probably the other one, but I never liked Rubber B or other straps on maxi cases.
It makes the wide lugs even more apparent; and they are not a compliment to the watch.

Agree, it is very liberating when one does not have to worry about scratches or dents to the OEM bracelet. However, I like the look of Rolex on OEM bracelet better.

Nice change up OP.

I prefer the factory bracelet as it’s the best in the business and too nice not to enjoy, but to each their own

Thanks guys. I really like the look... If I want it to stand out a bit more I’d swap the oyster bracelet back on. It did look great with that too

I'd be curious to see what a SUBC with Oyster Flex looks like.
