The Tropical Rubber Strap of the Aquanaut
The Tropical Rubber Strap of the Aquanaut 5065 will break down over time? Do they not last? Does the Rubber Strap of the Aquanaut 5167 break less?
Does anyone know the price of the Rubber Strap of the Aquanaut 5065? and the price of the Rubber Strap of the 5167? |

Took 3 years before my 5167 strap began to soften and get more comfortable

Funny you just posted this. My 21 year old strap from my 5066 started to crack where the clasp joins the strap just on one side. So My local AD ordered a new on 2 weeks ago and the watch maker will do the fitting. Its my daily strap held up great it did have the curl up edge alittle but didn't bother me at all.

Not heard of any issues and mine seems very sturdy, without abuse it should last many years I expect.

To preserve plastic and rubber items, and this is also excellent for your car's rubber door gaskets and non-leather interior too, plus your fiberglass boat, etc. use 303 Protectant.

Have used it for years, never had a problem. Theme parks also use it on their rides I've heard. Many use it for their boats, car interior, etc.

I don't have it written down. All was verbal via phone. Ad wanted $ down used credit card.I believe total price just around 250 us. Im thinking $220 actual price. Sizing is included which is a big deal to me. Btw I have no buying history with this AD.
