I was wondering if anyone has found a decent rubber strap for a 116500 with the curved ends to match the case? I know about the Everest, Rubber B and Zealande options and was wondering if anyone had found similar quality for a little less money? Tang buckle is ok, but was hoping to find a decent deployant strap.

I've bought a few over the years off Ali and DHGate but they were usually shot quality and the holes didn't really match up with the lugs. Took a lot of work and pushing our prying to mount them due to the hole mismatch.

If you are looking for one without end links, I thin the 3 options you mentioned are the safest. If you want oysterflex, ask Li to source you the latest CF ones. They're really good

No wobble, the curved spring bars hold the strap pretty tight to the case. The OEM 78590 Daytona bracelet uses 1.8mm spring bars.
Oh okay my bad. I thought they were 2mm

Agree without end links that Rubber B and Everest are likely best bets. For those looking for an Oysterflex strap with end links to fit a 116500 or 166520, are the ones Li can source from CF able to fit? I know this look tends to be for the precious metal version of the Daytona but trying to get it to fit a stainless steel model. Appreciate any wisdom here.

Great - thanks a ton — any chance you can share a photo? I have a chat with Li and will run this down with him.

Sure, not home but this is the only one I have on my phone. It has a noob 116519 dial in it but the base is a CF 116500

I like it a lot but I need a bigger size. This is a E and F with easylink out and it fits just slightly more snug than I’d like so will get another F
