Ginza Alpinist: Need a good Rubber or Alternative Bracelet

Hey All, i've got a ginza alpinist, i've seen a few people on the forum have them too, I'm a tweeter and I can't seem to get anything that fits well, I currently have it on a leather strap which is great but as it's getting hotter i'm starting to sweat a lot more and wouldn't mind something more robust that I can get wet but wear comfortably throughout the day also.  It would be great if it's something that matches the watch colours or complements them, any other owners come across anything? I'm based the UK so ordering this side of the pond is more ideal. 19mm lugs for those that don't own one. I've heard 20mm rubber straps would work well but haven't tried it myself. Cheers!

Barton do the Silicone Elite in 19mm - nice strap and available from Amazon in the UK. I would be reluctant to oversize with rubber unless a really soft compound.

I was loooking at this for a while but read that they fall apart rather quickly? perhaps just some unhappy  reviews do you have personal experience with the?

A while ago, I think they are pretty good but not as durable as genuine rubber. I have an Isoswiss rubber strap which is in a different league but more expensive and also not available in 19mm
