Loving the Rubber B on the JC Deepsea

This strap made my deepsea wearable again! Lost a ton of weight a few years back and the DS stopped getting wrist time. But with the strap swap it looks and feels more sportier les bulky. So if you’re on the fence about it go for it perfect fit too!

Happy early Father’s Day fellas!

Again that’s the reason I stopped wearing the watch after I lost a lot of weight, just felt too big on me. I guess I’ll just keep rocking the platona! Does this look more fitting for you guys.

OP all that matters is how you feel about it. Don’t worry what others think. Although I will say I think it looks fine. By the way your Daytona is an amazing piece. Have always loved that model.
Happy Fathers Day!!

Wow, that looks big but as long as you like it that's all that matters. To my eyes that strap really works.

Its the angle of the pic can greatly change the perspective of the watch size on the wrist. The DSSD is a larger watch and can be worn as an oversized diver so as long as it’s comfortable for you, that is all that matters. I lost about 30lbs over the last 2 years and it does change the way your watch fits but that is a good thing.
I would rather lose weight and have the watch a touch large than the other way around.

Love it. I’ve changed straps before and completely fallen back in love with a watch. Wear in good health!

It's a nice alternative. I just like mine on oyster too much to want to change it up.

The DSSD looks ridiculous on most guys so don't get upset OP. And yes that Daytona looks fantastic!
