Seamaster 300 Heritage Rubber Strap Options
Can anyone recommend a good rubber strap for my Seamaster 300 heritage? I have looked online and on the forum , and it looks like there just isn’t much available rubber strap wise . I tend to really gravitate toward OEM pieces but I’m just not finding much. I really like the RubberB strap in blue but they don’t make a strap to work with the OEM deployment . Any pics or recommendations?
Thanks,

Important to note this watch is 21mm between the lugs. I was gonna recommend a genuine Tropic, but it's not available in that dimension.

RubberB make a fitted rubber SwimSkin strap now for it. The newer models.
The fitted curved rubber for the Planet Ocean 43.5mm will also fit, but you need to use a 21mm curved spring bar. I used to run this setup on my Spectre 300. |

I like the swim skin but it doesn’t work with the OEM deployment . I may just have to buy an 18MM OEM tang. Sucks to see there isn’t much avail strap wise from Omega ☹️

True on the Swim Skin, but the mentioned Omega fitted/curved end rubber straps will fit flush with curved spring bars, and are al deployment.

I had no idea that rubber b make a strap specifically for this watch!
I too was looking for a good rubber strap when I got the watch last Dec. Initially I went with this But with the cuff, it was way to thick and uncomfortable to wear. So I cut the cuff off and it was a little better. But the strap was way too long. I had to wear it on the last strap hole...and the end of the strap extended almost to the watch. I then discovered Artem sailcloth and I have been very happy with it. But I really do like the look of the one you got. Looking forward to a review once you receive it! |

So you did end up ordering the RubberB strap? Did you get the ballistic swim skin? If so, let me know what you think of it. Considering pulling the trigger on that one for my blue Heritage 300.

Nice. I think it's a perfect match. I like how the strap has a mixture of textured versus smooth finishes. The strap adds some character and complexity without clashing with finishes on the case, bezel or dial.

Any Updates??
Mac-Apple have you found anything else deployment-wise for your Omega Seamaster Heritage? I have this model and want a rubber deployment so bad but also can't find one. I'm thinking of going with the tang buckle from Rubber B you got.
