What kind of leather, rubber, etc straps do you recommend for Submariner and where do you find them? Thanks

Jeanna at Stone Creek Straps makes wonderful custom straps. Here's a couple of mine.

I've been looking for a canvas/sail strap for my Sub, sort of like the one that comes with a Blancpain Fifty Fathoms.

Rubber B strap if you're lookin for rubber

Rubber B for Sub. Great fit.

I got this Maratac Elite composite stap at broadarrow.com. I guess it is some type of synthetic. I has a somewhat rubbery feel, but looks like nylon. I love it. It is very comfortable as it has some stretch.

Very sharp looking. My only watch with a bracelet is the Sub and I could easily switch over to one of these.

I prefer the bracelet on Rolex, but I do like the look of the James Bond Nato strap. http://www.europelli.com/Zulu-and-NATO.html

I like Swiss and Italian rubber.

On a 'True Bond' NATO, it's the type with the nylon keeper rather than the steel d rings, a bit more traditional I think.
