In Response To: Rubber straps ()

I bought mine right after I had gotten my SMP, put it on the watch and anjoyed it very much.
The rubber is soft and of a pleasant touch and seems to be durable.(Only have it a year+ so can't make any farther guarantee)
A few months after had bought the SMP I purchased my Dynamic which has soon become my everyday watch. I found out that the rubber strap fits the Dynamic almost perfectly hence I put it on it and have been wearing this combo ever since. (occasionaly change to a leather strap or it's authentical bracelet for short periods)
The SMP received it's bracelet back and is been wearing once a while.

Sorry, but can't answer whether is the rubber more durable than the sharkskin. However I really feel that this rubber strap may be highly recommended.

Hope it helps.

Regards, Baruch.
