Patek 5712gr & Rubber B
Just purchased the Patek 5712gr, love it, have had all the 5712s and think this is the prettiest.
I have never been a two-tone guy, but after buying a 5980ar, Patek just does it right. I ordered two Rubber B's black and grey. Can't decided on which color rubber to put on. Any thoughts? Thank you! |

 I used the grey strap... not too bad to change, only hard part are the small screws. Very important to have solid/strong tools! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Looks really good!
Is it easy to switch straps?

Yes!
Just took a long time because the screws were so small. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Hideous. The bracket is so beautiful, it doesn’t make sense to exchange it with a black chunk of rubber.

and op's example came on a leather strap. the rubber is sporty and nicely echos the striated dial design. to each his own. |

You can't change from bracelet to strap. The configuration is completely different. This is only for leather strap models. I have one and it's very practical in terms of going on the water, sweat etc.

I'm a fan of how the grooves on the band compliment the dial. Feels OEM to me. If you want to go more bold check their military green one.

I have a 5712r. I need to see if RubberB has a brown strap! Yours looks great!
