Which is more comfortable?
Which is more durable?
Which is better fitting?

All feedback is very much appreciated!!
Here is the issue with the Everest strap for the Submariner. If you use the Rolex spring bars, it pushes the strap against the bezel and the bezel won't turn smoothly. If you use the spring bars that come with the strap, the diameter of of the spring bar is too small, so when positioned inside the lug hole there is wiggle room and it will slowly wear the inside of the lug hole.

I re-asked Everest about this last month and am awaiting a reply.
