Congratulations! Looks great on the rubber strap with the red stripe accent. Nice match with the case and dial. Enjoy and wear in good health. Cheers!

Thanks for all the nice comments. I do love the Rubber B straps. I have one for my D blue. So I knew I would have to get one for the Daytona.
The colour strip is wider on the new straps.
Just my opinion but I tried a Everest strap on my D-blue and didn't like it as well as the Rubber B

Excellent for driving nails. Strap makes a great handle.

Ha ha.....I think you are correct. The stickers are still on in the first picture : )
Good eye. I left them on until I finished putting the Rubber B on.
Also just noticed.....my phone did some spelling changes.
Changed it to "hot rubber b"????
Dang auto spell!!!

Looks good! I'll always prefer the bracelet but rubber is a nice option for summer.

Looks fantastic. Congratulations. Thinking of putting my black dial on that exact strap.... side thought... in what other situations have you used hot rubber for your phone to default to it 😂😂😂
