Rubber strap for 5726 recommendations

Hi All.

I have purchased a 5726A-001 on alligator strap yesterday, which is great, but would like to be able to swim in it occasionally and wear it during summer on a rubber strap.
Can anyone recommend a decent one, please? I looked at some offered by Rubber B and purchased straps from them before, but not too keen on the designs for this specific watch they currently offer.

Thank you!

Congrats - great watch that can be dressed up or down depending on the strap.
Did it not come with the second OEM strap which is waterproof?
Apart from RubberB there are Horus straps - never had one so can’t say how good they are although they appear high quality:

Not rubber but I really like the look - apparently OEM straps made out of sail cloth like material and only available at the Geneva Salon (don’t ask me why I have tried)

I can confirm that. I asked for exactly that strap for my 5726A-001 and I was told that it is only available at the Geneva Salon for their local customers. However, you can custom order a number of other straps, albeit in traditional materials, i.e. alligator, calf, etc.

Should have come with an oem rubber strap too. That is the nicest one, still elegant yet sporty. Go to your AD if you didn't get it
