New Shoes on the 5711

Changed from brown to military green rubber for a little fun in Miami. Even found a pair of shoes to match. Enjoy!

Love the idea of a rubber strap. Who makes them for the Nautilus?

Thank you for the info. Looking, they only make them for strap models. I was surprised since I did not think they existed for bracelet models and I guess they do not.

The RubberB site says 'not for the bracelet models'. There are engravers who separate the bracelet and the head, so that must be possible. Anything else stopping one from having a custom leather strap made for the 5711/1A?

Yes only for strap models. I changed it to rubber almost immediately after getting the watch. I travel constantly on business to humid places also like the ocean a lot so it made sense. If It were on the bracelet I don't think I would change it to rubber.

Me too, I get many compliments on the brown but I have to tell you I'm very tempted to get the navy blue next. I like the contrast between yellow gold and navy.
