Rubber Band for DJ
Hey Guys,
I was thinking about getting a rubber band for my 116200. I recently saw a photo of an adventure photographer with his 116200 on a rubber band and it looked awesome. I checked out the fan favourite brand "Everest", but it looks like they don't carry any bands for datejusts. Does anyone know of a reputable brand that would work with my 116200? Thanks! |

I may be wrong, but that would be considered blasphemy...

I concur.. Datejusts are meant to have either a jubilee or oyster bracelet NOT rubber...

I found it! It looks like a modified everest strap. I may just contact them and see what the options are.
http://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=407586 I think it looks pretty darn good! The smooth bezel is pretty sporty. |

Really, follow your intuition and to hell with the naysayers!!! For me that looks great as it would with a OP or Exp.

Do what you want with your watch and to hell with what anyone else thinks. I mean come on, Rolex just put a rubber strap on a rose gold Yachtmaster for crying out loud. Try RubberB they may make one.

It's been done albeit on a different model. Can't say that I'm a fan but whatever floats your boat.
Not mine btw. |

I like it, but more important is that YOU like it.

I think DJ will work with rubber. Why not? I won't mind to try if I could find correct rubber strap for my DJ.
