I'm thinking of buying a gmt master ii soon, but I wanted to change the oyster bracelet to a rubber one and was wondering if they do that at AD's, or if not, is there any good place to buy one? I live in Sydney Australia, but am going hong kong to buy the watch.

Abdullasaif · 3 January 2016, 09:46 PM

Rolex dont sell a rubber strap from ADs, you would have to look for a third party rubber strap for a GMT Rubber B or Everest is what i recommend

ltmgeller · 3 January 2016, 09:46 PM

I hear good things about the rubber b strap.

kilyung · 3 January 2016, 09:52 PM

Try getting an Oysterflex strap. That'd be cool.

Chadridv · 3 January 2016, 11:13 PM

Everest mAkes a fine product!

Dan Pierce · 4 January 2016, 03:54 AM

Custom end links + Italian Bonetto Cinturini rubber = a proper bit of kit, IMHO.

That looks so nice!! I want to try that on my BLRO. My only concern is the custom end links won't match the white gold case.

ABChop · 4 January 2016, 07:17 AM

My brother has a Rubber B for his and loves it.
I plan to get one for my DeepSea as well.

scombs263 · 4 January 2016, 05:04 PM

I have a Rubber B on my Deep Sea and LOVE IT!

sherfield2002 · 5 January 2016, 01:12 AM

I just put an Everest on my BLNR and LOVE it!

Love the everest look! I should try that on my BLRO. Would be perfect for those Hawaiian island vacations.

It's probably just my own quirkiness, I like the rubber straps on SS models but to me it just seems like a downgrade to put a rubber strap on a nice PM piece after paying so much for the PM bracelet. With that said, we all do what makes us happy and no harm in that.

superdog · 5 January 2016, 05:22 AM

I really like rubber on my watches. In fact, I love it.

I am partial to RubberB because I have had them before and they are top quality.

In fact, this thread inspired me to order a RubberB for my GMTC, so thanks for that.

All that said, I think the Everest that Silverbullet posted looks pretty darned amazing.

SemperFi · 5 January 2016, 05:25 AM

I have a RubberB on my Explorer. The fit and finish are perfect.

Thanks!

Contact Mastermixer [Richard], he can make solid white gold end links.

Thanks, Tim!

Rubber B on mine. I prefer rubber to the metal. It's comfortable, not worried about scratching, or stretching versus the metal band.

I didn't put it on so I can't say how difficult or easy it was to place.

Everest are awesome. I've heard good things about rubber b. I wish there was an oem option but sadly there is not

That, is a great look!!

Palakiko · 13 January 2016, 06:07 AM

^^Thanks for the complement. The green on the dial matches perfectly to the green on the rubber B.

Like some others and their BLNR; they choose the blue because it's their favorite color. Green is one of my favorite colors.

Another angle showing the green on the band. So subtle, subdued.

I had a RubberB for my GMT. I bought it for when I took a long trip to Europe and knew I'd be banging around in hotels and on the move so I didn't want to scratch up my bracelet. It worked great and fit like a glove.

After that trip the bracelet went back on and the strap sat in my closet.

I really love the RubberB carbon on my SubC, perfect once things start to heat up...
