Hi,

I'm exploring a few different straps for my 14060M COSC to wear in the summer. Does anyone know if the Isofrane's lug-bar hole is too small for the thicker lugs on the 14060M?

(I broke a lug bar once trying to pull it back out of a rubber strap whose hole was too tight for the bar -- just trying to avoid another mishap.)

Thanks!

It's a tight fit. As a matter of fact, I bought extra spring bars that stay in my Isofrane all of the time. They went in easily...but pushing is easier than pulling.

Thanks, ecsub44. The Isofrane looks great on the Sub -- the look I'd like for the summer. Are your extra spring-bars Rolex OEM? (If so, where can I find some?)

Cheers!

I either got them at the AD or from Ofrei. I have a bunch of springbars from both...and they all seem equivalent to me.

I just checked Ofrei and saw the "generic" ones made to fit Rolex. I'll order a bunch.
Thanks -- you've been helpful.

Cheers.

Very nice. Love that strap. Cool and vintage

First of all, let's get the nomenclature right. It's either a Sub or a Sub w/date.

Jack T, you're right. Thanks.

Make sure to get the ones listed as being for the 14060 (obviously).
