YM blue on rubber

[JR16]

Inspired by the WGYMOF, I decided to put on the black Everest strap I have for my SubC.... not sure if I’m sold on it, not sure if the contrast between the black rubber and platinum bezel is too much , or if a diff color rubber would look better.

Would love to hear your thoughts / opinions !

I think I would prefer a dark or medium blue strap which will compliment the dial.

[Welshy]

I like it!

My vote also is for a navy blue rubber strap. I think that combo would look great, especially in the summer.

I love the YMblue look.. but not a black strap.

[JR16]

Thanks for the opinions - I agree something about the black just doesn’t totally work. I already had it so figured I’d try it on not just for color but for fit.

Has anyone owned or seen in the flesh both the blue rubber B and blue Everest ? From the website photos hard to tell which shade of blue would be a better match.

Yea OP the Rubber B matches the dial perfectly.

black doesn't work that well on it, but it does look good on rubber.

The RubberB blue strap looks good on it.

I've tried a few different rubber straps on it. I have a blue camo rubber that I like it on.

This is the combo IMO. I have the white rubber b on mine.

I like the blue dial YM very much but I don't like any rubber strap (including the Oysterflex) so I would wear it with the Oyster bracelet.

+1 for the blue strap.

I like the blue rubber strap.

I second what's already been said, superb with a navy blue strap, not so sure about the black one. A multicoloured nato might work too.

+1 for the blue rubber.

Update ... ordered a blue rubber B and Everest from my AD and looked at them both today- the Everest was too royal blue for my taste , but the rubber B was a nice navy and looked really good w my blue YM , so I bought it. Think it looks great . So far very comfortable. Only downsides vs Everest were that strap had to be cut to size and does not work w easy link . Otherwise, pretty happy w my choice.

Blue white or red work well.

[Pw92676]

I like it a lot.

I actually think a blue croc would look much better than a black or blue rubber.

Something like the omega blue croc would be perfect.

Those look good, would be even better with endlinks as it has the Plat bezel.

You’re prob right, but too much effort in this case!

I like it on the blue and black rubber. Is the blue dialled version of the YM still available?
