Exploring With Rubber On

I'm always looking for different rubber strap options, and thought I'd share the latest. I've got Rubber B and Isofrane and I like them both very much. This is from Hirsch and costs a fair bit less. It is very comfortable, high quality rubber and I really like the texture in the middle of the strap--a little more interesting than the plain Rubber B (though the curved ends on the Rubber B are a nice plus). Called the Accent model and retails for $75.

Enjoy

Looks cool. I'm going to a friend's birthday lunch today; will be wearing my ExpII Polar and a white linen outfit; your strap combo would look great with it

size

Looks very nice sir !

What's the size of this strap, not the exotic 21mm size I think ?
On your pictures it looks like a 22mm squuezed in the 21mm EX42 lugs, correct ?

thanks for sharing, considering one !

Thanks!

Hi, I just checked out the Rubber B website. The strap looks great on the Sub.....but $220?? Is it a rip off?
