Got myself a cheap (US$20) rep rubber strap, been looking for one for ages.

I intend to use this as a tool strap, when I predict a little wear & tear when wearing my Breitlings. The rubber compound seems fine, it hasn't attracted any dust at all - unlike the 20mm PO strap.

The band keeper loop was too big though, but I found a smaller one lying around so used that instead. My only real critcism is the the buckle is too tight. It takes a bit of effort to get the strap in!

All in all, not bad for a cheapie! :D

The rubber strap of one of the comfest I have worm. I had the blue rubber on blue steelfish. Since sold to memeber who is now enjoying it. It is very handsomely priced and can be found at local AD if they have it in stock. This is a must for all Brieiling owerns. Very sporty.

@Importr: This looks like a rep Breit strap , it's a rep one, isnt it ???
If yes , .... I am also after one like this.

I've checked the site from you where you got it (....address is written on the yellow paper slip) ..... but this product does'nt appear there.

As I said , I am also after a rep breit rubber strap (for an SSO) .... so any help where I can find it will be appreciated.

Thanks

...... 15 mins later ....: I found the store on ebay , but dont seem to have it any more.

:oops: to what type of car belong the wheels ont the pic??

All,
Sorry about the late replies, I've been working away from home a lot these days...

Neverworn: it was a spare from my JDM Integra DC2, which I sold many years ago. The wheel just gathers dirt in the garden now! Btw, its a League 016 GTR, i think... bought because at the time it looked like a Volk TE37. 8)

Ylltrb: the rep buckle being so difficult to use really bugged me, so I got a gen strap & buckle off the Bay. Never looked back since! :D

amk000: you would have to email the seller (if there is an email address there) otherwise I can find out their ebay ID for you..? Thing is, the gen strap is waaaay superior in comparison. Well worth the extra cost outlay for the ease of fit and function! :lol:


Cheers all :wink:
