Seamaster 300 Strap
Picked this up on Friday. I’m wanting the OEM rubber strap. Any idea how much they are and would an Omega Boutique be the best place to source one? Thanks in advance...

I paid $160 for mine as part of my negotiation for my SMP. I believe MSRP is closer to $260. It was ordered in mid-July and isn't expected to be here until mid-October.

At the AD I contacted it was $300 for the strap and buckle. And yes, the buckle was back ordered.

I ordered my strap in November 2018 and that arrived after 6 weeks. Unfortunately, I am still waiting on the buckle. On my last visit to the AD they said I may get it by October.

Visited OB this morning to order a black rubber strap and buckle. I stated I understood I’d probably have to wait. Associate took my info and said he’d call when the next shipment arrived. 20 mins later the associate called me with an apology, saying he should have checked first, but that he went in the back and had a strap and buckle for me. Feeling lucky I immediately visited the next door Rolex boutique to pickup that elusive Submariner in the back...unfortunately not so lucky!

Update-Strap and buckle arrived on Monday. I won’t make it to the OB until next weekend so they’re shipping it to me today..the wait was shorter than anticipated. Sure is nice to be able to want something and be able to source it quickly. Rolex has lost a customer, not that they care...

That looks great. The strap makes it look so different. In my opinion the red on the dial and second hand pops more on the strap. Also, the bezel stands out more when it's on the rubber. I think this watch looks great on the bracelet and even nice on the strap.
I have the Sedna Gold and it looks like a completely different watch on rubber. |

It looks so much better with the rubber strap. The SS strap doesn’t do it for me.

Ordered in mid-July. Was just told it'll be another 6-8 weeks... this is getting ridiculous.

Sorry, I probably worded it wrong. I have the two tone black Sedna on rubber. Is that blue one you’re referring to new? I swear I’ve seen it but maybe it was the SS case. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
