Yes, no or kind of cheesy bro ?

I bought a white, blue and black rubber strap just to try out some different looks and I really didn’t think I would like white! but I kind of do 🤔

I do feel this would more suit a lady though 

thoughts?

I like it! and as long as you do!

Good summer look:-)

·

Looks awesome!

·

Really nice watch for summer. Enjoy it:)

If you're in some balmy louche locale, maybe. Otherwise white watches just reek of Tiger King or Rodney Dangerfield with a white belt in checked golf pants to me. 

Fine if one is a nurse.

Last Saturday I met a guy wearing an all-white G-Shock, one of five he owns.  Big strong-looking guy with kids.  What‘s the stylistic difference between that and your all-white Rolex combo?  I say rock it, although a light gray band would work well too.

I agree.  It's a helluva watch.  But the white strap is not very  elegant.

It makes it look toyish.

Anyway, greetings from Avondale, AZ!

👍 Nothing wrong with a white strap on a man. I have several watches on white or linen straps.

I should probably start a thread on the old belts should match shoes, which should also at least complement watch band and gloves, I think. Again, the association with white belts  (and shoes, less bucks) and FOWG's with questionable taste is just too strong for me.

depends on what color clothes you're wearing

Completely agree with the toyish comment. To be honest I’m very active and in the gym everyday 90% of the time in gym clothes so it doesn’t stand out like this and the rubber is extremely comfortable

This is true! I usually dress very monotone so it’s actually easy to slip this in most of my outfits

I ordered a cheap grey just to see what it looked like and I really liked it

These both came from Barton Watch Bands.

And this one is a replacement from Bertucci.

keeping that strap brite white might be impossible? Bracelet for that imho.

Agreed, it depends on the clothes. Then again, it's not hard to pair it with simple t-shirt, jeans, and maybe some white Vans. 

·

I think it looks great; to the point that I'm now opening a tab to look for a white strap.

I cannot find any of the colours I like from Barton they’re all out of stock in the UK apart from the 2 tones options but I’m waiting as they seem like an amazing deal! I watched a few videos on YouTube too

Luckily this is a cheap version which I agree will definitely not keep its colour But I think the Everest version is made from a diffferent kind of rubber which should last longer

Nothing is cheesy if you like it. Who cares what anyone else thinks? I guess if you had to twist my arm I'd say I'm not a fan of white but there's no doubt that's a beautiful watch 

·

Rock that thing, dude! It looks great!
