Olive Green Rubber Strap for GMTIIC

[lbj_19]

Lately I have been looking for an olive greenrubber strap for my GmTiic 116710.

Everest and Rubberb which are the top options both doesn’t have the color.

Vagenari also does not offer one.

Tempomat quality is poor.

I have only seen one w horus, but have been hearing negative things about its quality. Anyone with a first hand experience with this brand? Or can recommend another brand? Thanks

Try the Isofrane green. I have it in that color. It should work nicely, and it’s a very high quality cool strap:

Look at Strapsco. They offer Oysterflex style rubber straps in a variety of colors with both straight and fitted ends. I’m running one on my Speedmaster and on a couple of Seikos, quality is good. $200-300 rubber straps are stupid in my opinion.

How does olive drab go with Kelly green of GMT hand and text on dial?

Isofrane run about $135.00.

Hi, I've bought a Horus strap for my slate Yachtmaster - I'm back to bracelet for now - and I found it to be really good quality. It's fairly soft/flexible, but so is my Daytona Oysterflex. I recall a fellow forum member did much the same, but solid blue rather than camo and also thought they were of good quality. I'd give it a go. way more options.

I totally agree with you that straps in the 200-300 range are a bit of a holdup. When I look around I always wonder what difference the strap brands have vs the non branded ones from China. We all know that almost all supply came from China, its only that they put their brands at the back of the straps.

I just couldn’t carry wearing a bright green strap on anything.

Looks good, just a question, based on the photos it seems like its not like most FKM straps or straps who are flat in feel. I am not sure its the correct term. But I have purchased before from Tempomat from Spain (but obviously strap still comes from China) and the feel was really bad. Has that silicone rubber feel which you can feel similar to the feel you get with rubber bands. I also have purchased a rubberB strap and it is totally not like it. The rubberb has a flat and smooth feel to it.

I am thinking of purchasing a horus but am afraid to be disappointed especially it being priced at where it is.

It might not be olive, but I really like the everest green matched with a 116710LN. The color matched the lettering almost perfectly. I'll try to dig up a pic.

On a side note, I never tried tempo mat for rolex but I've had them for patek and loved it.

Sorry for the delay, it feels like my Oysterflex and doesnt attract dust, assume its FKM.....
