Who Does Rubber?

Anybody knows who manufactures the rubber straps for brands like Patek, Vacheron, Ferrier, etc.? Do brands (and these brand specifically) just typically do this "in-house" or do they commission the work from a known atelier in the space?

Favorite is AP rubber straps with panerai a close second.

Not a fan of rubber b at all as the quality is very far from the above.

Would also like to know a source for AP quality after market straps.
