Trying to determine if this red Everest is worth keeping...

Everybody will have an opinion. I’m not a fan of rubber straps on Rolex models but some are. It’s ultimately your decision.

hrm · 1 April 2020, 08:23 AM

Not a fan of the red rubber. I recently saw a black rubber strap in a sub and it looked good.

Time4aRolex · 1 April 2020, 08:26 AM

What does the buckle look like?

Gecko10 · 1 April 2020, 08:38 AM

Certainly not that color.

MacDaddyOC · 1 April 2020, 08:41 AM

Don't like the red, but I do like their straps.

OrangeKenny · 1 April 2020, 08:45 AM

Yay; that looks fire

AF_Rob · 1 April 2020, 08:46 AM

I wear a red rubberb on my polar ExII and I'm happy with it. I never tried Everest but I don't see it being much different.

HONDABBQ · 1 April 2020, 09:22 AM

Nope. Looks dumb

watchmework · 1 April 2020, 09:24 AM

not for me....and I think it looks more of a salmon color.

Phooi · 1 April 2020, 09:28 AM

For some reason, rubber on sub is not for me, especially that color on that sub.

Sorry.

Father and Son · 1 April 2020, 09:31 AM

Nay for me but it doesnt matter what I think if you like it...

GsurgBM · 1 April 2020, 09:34 AM

Rubber is for condoms, not watches.

Jster · 1 April 2020, 09:37 AM

I vote no. Looks best on the Oyster bracelet.

s46 · 1 April 2020, 09:43 AM

its ok but not my first choice - prefer steel bracelet - if it has to be rubber I would go black

schoolboy · 1 April 2020, 09:46 AM

I like it

rokonman · 1 April 2020, 09:48 AM

Nay

Explorer2polar · 1 April 2020, 09:50 AM

Nay Nay Nay thrice nay. Awful in my opinion.

Chadridv · 1 April 2020, 09:52 AM

great strap, color is ok. Obviously black is the ideal choice. For fun options their green strap looks great on a 114060, and orange is really fun (but kind of in the red group).

If it's every once and a while, I don't see anything wrong with having some fun.

sickened1 · 1 April 2020, 09:54 AM

You know what they say.. Whatever floats your boat..

Ny325 · 1 April 2020, 09:57 AM

Nay. I’m a traditionalists. Less is more. The Oyster bracelet belongs on a Sub in my opinion.

TNT009 · 1 April 2020, 10:34 AM

Not that color!

Likestheshiny · 1 April 2020, 10:55 AM

I'll parrot previous posters and say that the red does nothing for me. I think the same strap in black would look great.

kenzembo1 · 1 April 2020, 10:58 AM

I too have an 114060 ...

It spends 90% of it's time on a NATO strap (nylon, leather, and rubber), but I've toyed with getting an orange Everest rubber strap to use with the OEM deployment. I had a black Rubber B with tang buckle for it years ago, but found it too boring and utilitarian, so I sold it. I have an orange rubber Zulu Diver NATO that I wear it on in the hotter summer months I've received quite a few complements on. I'll eventually 'upgrade' to the Everest strap though. IMO, orange and black is a striking combination, especially on a diver.

If you go in a completely different direction and decide to get something more monochromatic, I suggest checking out the graphite digital camo rubber strap from Horus.

Jackie Daytona · 1 April 2020, 12:53 PM

I don’t like it personally, but if you balanced it with a YM red seconds hand that would probably look pretty cool. That’s obviously a bit much to compliment a strap change though.

Annan · 1 April 2020, 12:59 PM

It came with a SS bracelet for a reason.

usmc_k9_vet · 1 April 2020, 02:04 PM

I think it looks good, but I think Rolex bracelets (oyster and jubilee) and clasps are so good, I’d have trouble wearing anything else.
