Yacht-Master II (116680) on RubberB
I recently ordered a Navy / Arctic White RubberB strap for my YMII. There aren't a lot of pictures of this combination on TRF so I took some for you guys.
Overall the strap is pretty comfortable. I have a large wrist (~7.5") so the 12 o'clock side is much longer than the 6 o'clock side causing the clasp to be off-center. I'm getting used to it. The quality is very good and it gives the watch a very summery and even more of a nautical feel.

They looks great! The clasp position would drive me nuts though.

I always wondered how the YMII would look with this strap. It looks great to me..

Thanks! Unfortunately the clasp posistion is worse the larger your wrist is. Using the original clasp, there is no way to make an adjustment to the 6 o’clock side. They could sell a few different preset sizes for that side I guess.

I like it. Maybe a Tang buckle would be better for you. The clasp is off.

There is no tang buckle option for the YMII. This RubberB strap was the only one I found other than the generic choices. I would definitely try a tang if/when it’s available.

I'm not convinced, love the standard bracelet. My favourite piece in my collection.

Just a personal opinion
I think the oyster and jubilee bracelets are what make the Rolex what it is. Don’t think rubber suits the brand . The only exception is is the straps on early subs .. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Cool look for the YMII. The clasp not being centered would bother me though, lol.
