That's a nice improvement to the wearability of that piece.

Thanks MS & Q. Another upside is that it updates the piece to go along with the Novelties.

I actually prefer the look of it on rubber!
Each to their own really, but IMO, the strap compliments and accentuates the pushers & bezel. I love the look!

Wow.. Looks great. I have a RB2 and definitely want to have it on rubber. Looks awesome. Now I need to get a strap and buckle at a decent price. I have a rubber strap for a 44mm novelty RG. Is that the right strap?

Don't think that will fit, need a Diver or Survivor rubber strap to fit RB2.

Rubber > stock.
Looks great and the Diver strap is one of the most comfortable out there.

Unfortunately the 44MM won't work. You need the 42MM diver rubber strap. Get it done and lets see some pics. :)
