Will Oysterflex fit RG Daytona?
I currently have an RG Daytona I picked up few years ago with a RG gold band and am considering switching to an oysterflex to wear it daily wear. Can anyone advise if the Rolex oysterflex band is compatible with this model? Alternatively, would I need to look into aftermarket options such as Everest or RubberB?
Thanks in advance. |

That’s what I thought. Can anyone recommend me in between Everest or RubberB? What’s better quality and fits better?

Maybe there is some other brand that’s even better than those both?

I have no experience with Everest. However, I do love my RubberB strap.

Rubber B does not fit full RG / WG / Platinum Daytonas
the straps are designed for the steel , full YG, TT and the oysterflex RG/WG/YG How do I know? on the website they never mention full RG / WG / Platinum Daytonas , so I asked them and they said they don't do it for those models Why? No clue |

Won’t an Oysterflex fix any model with the matching lug width? I’m wearing an OP41 on a 21mm Oysterflex at the moment.

Oysterflex will fit. You may wish to buy end links that match your watch if you want to re-create the comes-with-OF look.

I have OF for my SS Daytona but with aftermarket Smarty endlinks. I don’t think he offers them in gold but you might look up the site and inquire. |

Some terrible information here, oysterflex will definitely fit. Fit is simply determined by lug width.
Now if you want the gap filler that is a different story. Also as to whether you can buy an oysterflex strap without owning an OF model... |

OF will fit!! You can either get end links to match in RG, or just wear it with a gap in lugs.
