Rubber B makes look smaller?

Switched my Tudor Heritage BB41 from the aged leather strap to a Rubber B and now it seems to wear smaller, in a good way - maybe seems a bit less slab sided - has anyone else experienced this?

This is my first Rubber B and it’s super comfortable and I like the way it looks, considering even getting one for my SD43 now but I’ll probably just stick with the bracelet tbh. Looking forward to a few swims/snorkles with the BB41 on Rubber B now in the med on holidays in the next few days. Let me know your thoughts on it.

Looks great! I might get one for my BB ceramic (on the Tudor nato currently) because of this post!

Yeah do it! I’m super happy with mine - I think it would look great on the BB Ceramic

I have a Rubber B on both my Tudor BB Ceramic and Rolex SD43 and really love them on both. Agree that on the SD it does make the watch look a bit smaller. On the Black Bay I actually think it makes it look a little bigger (not thicker but a little longer) since it's all the same color. They make terrific straps.

I put my SD43 on a Rubber B tang, it definitely makes it wear smaller and more comfortable. It’s been my daily wearer since.

Fitted the new Vanguard Integrated strap for the BB Pro on mine and am finding it very comfortable to wear. Have had a Vanguard strap that goes on my BB58 Navy Blue for a couple of years now as well which has been great. At under £100 as well you can’t go wrong, the quality on them is excellent.

Definitely - the Rubber B seems to pull the case closer to the wrist. I use one on my Tudor Chrono.
