Rolex straps
Hello all,
I hope that you are all doing well. My question for today is is there any of you use strap on your Sub 116610? If yes, what are your opinions about leather, rubber or nato straps? Your comments will be greatly appreciated. Best, Hien |

Hi Hien - for rubber and leather with an OEM look/fit try Rubber B, for NATO straps I've used Marantac and Crown & Buckle, and find C&B to be the better quality strap.
Post some pics of your watch once you've made the strap change!

I use both. Marantac (on Kobold) I've had for 8 years and finally replacing the due to the adjustment hole fraying (sealed it a couple times with lighter) and the stitching finally giving out. Crown and buckle just bought for my Rolex and Tudor divers. They look great but just a touch short for my taste, but it's good quality.

Rubber B and some NATOs look good but on the modern references, the Oyster bracelet is the only choice for me.
Vintage is another story. |
