Love the look of “fitted” rubber straps, but does anyone else find them uncomfortable?? 👀 Maybe it’s just my wrist, but it always feels pinched on the sides….

I love my 58 on a Rubber B. Looks like that's what you are wearing? depends on the wrist or how tight?

This one is a Vanguard, but it’s gotta just be my wrist shape 😂. All the ones I’ve tried on various Seiko’s don’t fit great either. I think they turn down after the lugs a little too soon for my wrist shape unfortunately

Oh I have a light grey Vanguard as well. But it’s too short so I stopped wearing it. It was a gift from a fellow enthusiast so it wasn’t something I could return as it was used

That’s unfortunate, I feel like the light grey would look awesome. Not sure if there’s any market for them pre-owned, but I may look into selling mine too. I wear it on the bracelet 99% of the time anyway 👍🏻

Pretty sure you could get something for it on eBay

I have an aftermarket fitted rubber for my 90s Seamaster and it angles down too sharply for my wide wrists

I think that’s exactly the problem I have. My wrist isn’t even that big (7.25ish) but I think it’s more oval than circle

Haha twins. I’m 7.25” too but very wide which causes issues for a bunch of straps
