Rubber B Advice Please!

Hi all, I am considering the purchase of a Rubber B w/ the OEM (Glidelock) clasp feature for my SDC4K. I would also consider an Everest....however they only custom make (at considerable expense) for this model.

Either way, it seems to me that at some point I read on one or more threads that you have to be careful when using Rubber B's sizing chart...as they tend to run smaller (or tighter) then what buyers were expecting to get!

Can any Rubbet B owners advise me on their experience with this?

With the glide lock don't worry too much, with normal clasp there's less tolerance for a cut too short....
Had few rubber B and after some time my preference goes for the tang buckle, easier to swap from rubber to ss bracelet.

Interesting you ask this.

I just got a rubberb for my 114060.

And I checked and double checked. Sure enough, it was too short.

But I just popped on another link onto the end that gets buried in the glidelock and it's as if I'd never know the difference.

I'm very happy with it.
