TRF Explorer I Club Thread

Hello guys,

Have you ever thought of putting your explorer on a rubber strap?

I'm really trying to find a quality alternative like Rubber B or Everest that would fit my 1016.

Any suggestions maybe?

I'm probably putting my blue OP on this blue rubber band with white stitches soon:

While I haven't worn either of my Explorers with rubber strap, a quick web search has me favoring the RubberB over the Everest. Those two have fitted ends and the RubberB looks pretty good.

If you went with a straight end style rubber I'd suggest something that won't be too thick, as I wouldn't want to overpower the curvaceous case. The Hirsch Pure may work well.

Web images of the RubberB.
