Osyterflex on D Blue or BLNR?

So I'm going to order the Oysterflex band from my AD and I don't know if I should put it on the D Blue or the BLNR. I will be ordering endlinks to complement the OF bands. Which one do you think it would look better on?

I've seen pics of a BLNR with endlinks but I have not seen the mod of a D Blue with endlinks on an Oysterflex so if anybody has pictures, please post.

The ultimate goal is to put the Oysterflex bands on a white 116500 when I get it.

Rubber B makes an arguably better option for the DSSD that matches the lugs and size of the watch head. It's an overall more streamlined fit. If your D-Blue happens to be a 126660 then the OF won't fit correctly.

I'd save the Oysterflex for the BLNR if that's your goal.

X2! the rubber b option for the DSSD looks killer!

The Oysterflex is going to look puny on a D Blue. Put it on the BLNR if it has to go somewhere.

(My BLNR is on a black croc strap and I think it looks great, so I'm sure an Oysterflex would look slick on one as well.)

Sounds like a good idea for the Dblue. I've never seen that combo.

I don't think the OF will fit on the D Blue will it? Anyhow, I really like what rubber B makes for the D Blue. It's one of the best looking rubber straps ever.

Stick with the OF on the BLNR.

The BLNR would be ideal to get.
