BB Pro - leather, rubber or steel?

It’s actually not as bad on straps as I thought considering the slight thickness (which has been blown out of proportion by YouTubers)

@Max would say zero pass 4 life ha

Steel! The others look good too though.

Steel

Leather I think would be the most unique. I'd love to see it on a dark brown strap.

·

i think the steel is still the best. altho i have the OEM single pass nato and that one is pretty good too. except it causes the watch to be a bit unbalanced as all the weight is now in the “head” of the watch with no weight in the bracelet to balance it out.

Steel please

Steel. No contest.

It’s one of v few watches that actually looks better on a strap, the watch head gets lost on the bracelet as there is just too much steel involved, the Tudors hybrid strap is perfection, and even when I had both bracelet and hybrid I preferred it on the strap

True. But depending on circumstances and where watch is being worn, might be #nowatch 😂🤣

Up to you. I personally prefer mine on rubber. My BB58 looks nicer on bracelet or leather. My FXD on velcro or I prefer Nato and my Pelagos 39 I prefer on rubber.

While I’m a bracelet fan, I do think it looks really nice on the leather strap.

·

All of the above

·

Rubber, then bracelet.

·

Steal!

Steel

Steel by a wide margin, then rubber, then leather.

The thickness isn’t the issue, it’s the slab side walls that make it look like a hockey puck. There’s also no need for it to be that thick in the first place.

·

Looks good with any, bracelet, leather or rubber. Though, at 14.7mm its thickness isn’t that overblown. Another thing to note, if on a bracelet or a made for Tudor rubber strap you can’t see the unpolished portion of the case between the lugs, which is unsightly. But on a strap it’s pretty noticeable, and because of the thickness most straps won’t cover it up.

I put my BB36 on a nato and noticed this as well. I’m coming around to it but from certain angles it just looks unresolved. Designed for the bracelet I suppose. From all other angles it’s still a strap monster though

I like all three! 100% agree with you that the YouTubers blow the case size out of proportion. My Omega AT is 13.6mm thick, Black Bay Burgundy is 14.5, and Omega Speedmaster 3220.50 is 15.3. 1mm is less than a fingernail’s thickness.

·

I prefer it on steel. Tried nato, leather and rubber but due to case shape it feels out of balance/top heavy. Agree with you re case hight and YT comments, blown out of proportions

·

All three .

·

Steel

·

All three! Swap it around!

·

Steel!!!

·

For this particular watch:

rubber > steel >>> leather

·

I like the steel and rubber.
