Original JC and Rubber B

I have been using this Rubber B strap for my Original JC lately and I have to say I love it. I think this is a great way to wear this watch.

A couple pics of me sporting the Rubber B while working from home today...

I really like the black strap W the green stripe. It Accents the green on the dial better than other pics!

I debated adding the green stripe one for a while but I was missing the glidelock so I added basic black.

Thanks! Don't know if it's coming out in the photos but the blue rubber B is an exact match for the Cameron blue on the dial. I've got a few of these straps and the blue personally wins for me. Doesn't work with every outfit though, but fortunately I'm a jeans and tshirt guy.

With the DSSD....are the Rubber B straps more or less comfortable than the Oysters?

They look good (I would get all black, myself).

While the rubberb is comfy, for my wrist (7 7/8 flat) the oyster bracelet is still tops.

It's 2 screws, or at least that's how my 16600 went on an Everest Strap.
