Hi,
Don't have a rep handy. Saw the Gen a few times, but that was many moons ago (so don't remember.)
Some other watch & strap manufacturers make straps that are NOT in rubber but still waterproof.

This IS a diving (ie. water) watch...

So, quick questions:
Are the sailcloth (gen &/or rep) supposed to be waterproof?
If not, what's a good rubber strap to put on that matches factory specs (23mm by 20mm) FOR Blancpain deployant - that is NOT Isofrane brand?

Thanks guys!! ;)
