High quality rubber strap?

Just wondering if there are any nice high quality rubber straps? Wife commented that I should get a strap like the aquanaut, but haven't really found any that are much better than a gshock strap.

Barton bands is a bargain, if you don’t mind the gap. Plus the ones mentioned above are very good

For what watch? I find Isofrane to be the best all-around rubber strap out there.

Rubber B or Everest for a Rolex. Isofrane, Horus, or OEM for a Panerai.

Barton is okay, and better for odd lug widths, like 21 or 23mm.

Would be for an iwc bronze spitfire mark xviii. More so I can wash it while I'm at work. Didn't realize rubberB had all those custom options, kind of too many choices.

Will be interested to see what you end up with- I think it will be hard to find a rubber strap that pairs well w the bronze spitfire.
