Love the comparisons between the different rubber straps. Just a little flick between the two straps shows all you need to know. It's insane how lots of reviewers don't bother! Also congrats on smashing through 800 subs!!

Man I’m glad I ran into this video… we have the same exact omega. My only watch other than my fitbit. I just bought my omega last week as a gift to myself. I’m excited. Thanks for the vid. I bought 3 different straps from strapsco.

Great honest review, Tony! I'll check out Strapsco rubber for sure, I love rubber straps for summer. I got a crazy deal on an excellent tropic rubber strap from Ali Express last year that has been on my Tudor BB58 all summer - I only paid $10 for it :) Everyone who sees it loves the vintage look and it is super comfortable.

It's refreshing to hear your honest review of watch straps. All that glitters is not gold. I've watched Ferrari reviews by owners who refuse to accept the "it's a Ferrari thing" from people who excuse quality control issues. Thanks for keeping it real, Tony.

Yes, I’ve seen some serious issues with Ferrari as well, and the “shrug it off” attitude because it’s a Ferrari. Thanks man! Always appreciate your comments! 🤙🤙

Dig your reviews. Thanks for the tip. Very helpful. Cheers from Switzerland 🇨🇭

Thanks, Tony! I love your channel- I have a submission for your q n a - when you chose a watch for purchase - do you buy what you think is cool, or do you consider what looks cool - on you. For instance - the 300m - did you chose the white because it’s -the best color way- or because the white suited you… thanks❤

Good advice. I think it's funny they contacted you about a refund on the $175. I probably would've taken them up on it. I hate to waste money on shit that I feel falls far short. I have an Everest that I bought used and it is good quality for my Sub. RubberB, I'm sure is great but I find many of these manufacturers are producing products for people who've spent $10K or more on a watch and wouldn't feel right if it didn't cost $250 for a "premium strap." I've not tried a Strapco rubber yet but do like their single-pass wovens. Good product for good price. Crafter Blue makes watch specific straps that are of good quality and reasonably priced if one wants a fitted strap. My only problem with them is I ordered one last fall and it took three months to be delivered with no communication from them it wasn't in stock. Didn't indicate on the website or order page as I paid. Pissed me off. I wouldn't have ordered it if I thought it was out of stock. Buyer beware of them from that standpoint.

It was weird. It was the CEO. He said he was very disappointed in my review. But, he text me at 4am. I guess he wasn’t aware there is about a 9 hours time difference. I liked the white on the Omega, so I kept it. And I also agree on your comment. Thanks. 🤙🤙

Has to be fitted to case (no gap) for me normally* and I would not put on a Rolex personally. Got an Everest for a Tudor BB (the fake rivet bracelet is awful and does not fit my wrist) but it has a pin buckle which I also dislike. Recently got a couple of Vanguard ones too as they say they work with the Tudor Deployant clasp. They slip a bit which is a shame as easily solvable, but main problem is they use DHL (awful company) with no option to pre pay tax!! * I did also get some ‘Watch Gecko’ Italian rubber vanilla scented deployant straps (but straight ended) for other watches and they are pretty cool and great value.

I'm looking for a black leather strap for my speedmaster, but I don't want to pay the extortionate amount they charge. I could buy a Hamilton for the price of the OEM strap. If anyone out there knows a good place to buy it in the UK then please let me know. Ps Tony, I love the book, Beetlejuice is an awesome movie! 🎬

You should check out WIS straps as well.

You seem to miss the fact that the cheap straps aren't curved and made to fit the watch head. The universal straps are cheap for a reason without the integrated lug bar piece that makes it fit perfect to the specific watch it was made for. The least expensive quality I have found is Tempomat Madrid from Spain.

Dont agree; zealande strap starrs 20mm and finishes 18mm, this makes it very similar to original rubber strap.

Aliexpress has fkm/fluoro rubber straps for $10-15 so that tells you how much these companies pay to have these made. Some are just more greedy than the others.

You gotta get that Omega rubber strap with the Deployment clasp! Much better than the holes and buckle. The straps actually come in 3 sizes. Here are the part numbers: Black Rubber Strap Small: 032CVZ015754 - (18.575cm) Regular Length: 032CVZ015752 - (20.675cm) Large: 032CVZ015755 - (22.675cm) Blue Rubber Strap Small: 032CVZ015756 - (18.575cm) Regular: 032CVZ015753 - (20.675cm) Large: 032CVZ15757 - (22.675cm) Deployment clasp: 18mm: 94521883
