Man pushing me to pick one up for my Pelagos even more. I saw EiT got one on their Pelagos and it’s all I’ve been thinking about now. I hate the OEM rubber

Looking good!
However, nothing compares to the DSSD clasp so bracelet would be my preference.

After owning two D-Blues, I just couldn’t get used to the size/proportions etc. but my only regret was to not try it on this strap.

I think the flared lugs, width, thickness, etc. look incredible, and looks more at home than the OEM bracelet IMO.

Congrats. Just beautiful.

I feel the same. This strap will prevent the head piece from gravitating or hanging off the top or bottom of your wrist. It just plants it smack dab in the middle of your wrist and feels great.

Duplicate post.

You can use your clasp on the all black strap option. It fits very comfortable.

I love my rubber b strap on my BNLR. The fit is perfect and it really is top quality. It looks like it is an OEM product.

Wow mate! that combination looks mad! It really looks like OEM. I regret not getting the red stripped.

I also have the Rubber B blue striped strap for the DSSD. Were that strap not available I probably would not have bought the watch! The strap makes a huge difference in the comfort IMHO.

The blue stripe adds the right amount of sportiness to the BLNR without being over the top like an all blue strap. I'll be rotating it with the regular PCL bracelet often.

I love the Rubber B with tang buckle I have for my 114060. It fantastic quality. I’m wearing that bracelet currently but plan to switch back to the Rubber B when the weather warms up.

I shared this before but if you didn’t see it, I wrote a review on my blog if you are interested.
