I was trying to find a stockist for Rubber B in the Uk . Is it Blowers that stocks them?
Have you found another stockist then?
Yes, Blowers are an official stockist for Rubber B. Have you found another stockist then?
Pricey though Rubber B straps are, they are an excellent product. I tried an Everest rubber strap on my Sea Dweller and it was a sod to get the spring bars through; it just didn't have the accuracy of fit that Rubber B have.
I've had the buckle type and the clasp type on my Deepsea and for me the clasp type is more comfortable!
I sold the buckle version but now not sure whether to sell the clasp type version too or use it to sweeten the deal when selling the Deepsea
They definitely feel in keeping with the quality of the watch!

Unfortunately you can't get an orange bezel insert from Rolex.
But you can get a patent replacement part in orange/steel or ceramic, usually frowned upon but doesn't bother me if the original is not on offer.
Thanks. I've got a LV, so have the green bezel with black rubber strap. I'd quite like the orange bezel and matching rubber. But you can get a patent replacement part in orange/steel or ceramic, usually frowned upon but doesn't bother me if the original is not on offer.
Any decent suppliers of aftermarket bezels? Like you I'm not bothered about originality, I'd be keeping my green bezel.

That looks great OP. I've got the Everest on mine and it's the comfiest strap I've worn.
I bought an Everest too (with the metal end links) but wore it once and decided that I'd made a mistake on the colour!The metal end links really make a difference to the overall look don't they, without the gap etc

Decided to brighten up my old Submariner with an orange Rubber B strap. Great result IMHO. Rubber B great service, bit pricey but easy to self fit with a decent set of fine screwdrivers and a very fine punch. A not great picture below
I just can't decide whether it works with the clasp or not.....I'm thinking of this for my GMT (LN): http://rubberb.com/en/rolex-watch-band-products/st...
But also can't decide whether that green strip (to match GMT hand) is a bit tacky or not....
Any opinions?

The clasp version is so much better than the pin buckle version imoI'm thinking of this for my GMT (LN): http://rubberb.com/en/rolex-watch-band-products/st...

I thought about the green pin stripe, it's pretty subtle
