Anyone ever used these or similar as I fancy putting a leather strap on my Sub?

Hi Gman

You can just take the strap off and fit a regular 20mm strap as shown here as many have done before. Not sure if these don't look a little fussy, all personal opinion....

Cheers, but I've never been a fan of the gap between the watch and the strap. I thought these end links would help as similar to the Daytona on leather.

How about Curved End straps?

I suppose it's a compromise of sorts, though they do look better than straight edged ones IMO.

Ised to wear a Hirch Medicion my daytona and have worn it on my 1665 a few times, looks good.

I think the solid end links look great on a Daytona though or perhaps any PCL watch. Not sure if they'd work on a Sub, someone find out!

I've bought from them - good reputation on rolexforums.com. I bought some for my Explorer 39mm but there's so little space between the end link, spring bar and bar holes I've not actually been able to fit any straps with the links in place.

I suspect a thinner, unpadded, strap would work but I've not got round to buying one. The Hirsch Viscount alligator strap I currently have doesn't fit.

They look really good value!
