Rubber B On Everose Daytona (116515LN)

Just got the 116515LN and looked for a more sporty strap for less formal use or when swimming/diving and so the stock leather was not desired. After much research I loved the look of the Rubber B Couture Series with red stitching. The feel is solid, fits comfortably, and it really is made perfectly for the rose gold Daytona. Check out how it form-fits to the underside by the case.

Here are some pics. Must admit that after spending some time deciding, am very glad I went with the Rubber B. Great quality and fits comfortably even on my small wrist. Needed to use the very last hole at the 6 o'clock side so that the clasp was centered, yet left the 12 o'clock side as stock. Called Rubber B with a question and they were very helpful too. BTW you'll need a notching tool and the 2mm one on Amazon for $15 works fine.

Now I can remove the stock clear protective stickers :)

Really nice, just wish RB had a wider choice on the sticky colour.

I like it a lot.

I thought about doing something similar in the past.

Yes the leather is very nice and looks great. Personally, find the leather strap a more formal look, which is what i was going for as already have a Sub ND. Not sure I'd want to swim with the leather band on... or when i desire a more casual/sporty look for the Daytona and thus the Rubber B fits the bill.

IMHO it is nice to have (personal) choices.
