Icon20 15550 rubber strap? Where can I find one that fits?

Hi all,

I’d like the option of wearing the 15550 on a rubber strap. Does anyone know where I can purchase one that fits correctly? Was having a tough time knowing exactly where to go for the 37mm case size.

Thanks

I actually asked this a long time ago because I had seen it and thought it looked awesome. Short answer is boutique will sell you one with the clasp for a relative arm and leg

I haven’t done it yet but still might

Interested in what they tell you - I hope that the new ROs will get the updated clasp for rubber, not the elongated AP ones ...

Yes please let us know, as I'm interested in getting rubber for the 15550 too. When I last asked, AP doesn't make rubber straps for the 37mm Royal Oak, would like to see if they have updated that

Last I asked they only made leather for the 37mm. That was for the 15450 so perhaps they now have rubber for the 15550. Would love more info if you get it.

The answer I received back was that AP does not make a rubber strap for the 15550 yet. Might just be a waiting game until they do so.

FWIW, I think the problem are the plots and not straps. Have tried the switch before, old plots not compatible sadly.

Is there anyone who makes a white rubber strap for 15450ST yet as well? I've been looking for the longest time...

How much does an arm and a leg cost

Would have sworn $700 or so for the set up. For a rubber strap I think A+L is an appropriate description ;)

I believe it's double that.

For the 15500ST 41mm, a touch over $10,000HKD, given exchange rate 7.8, around $1200-1300USD. Rubber strap + clasp + plots.
