De Bethune published a picture of a DB28 with a rubber strap

To be honest, I'm not a fan but I appreciate that they work on a solution of a kind of "all around" strap:

Their croc straps are so beautiful that this one is quite difficult to consider

I don't like it but I imagine they will find the right one (maybe without sealing the openworked lugs).

Thanks for sharing.

Cheers, Mark

The watch lost its presence [nt]

I think the seals on the lugs offer an additional 3D effect...

which I appreciate. Furthermore, the strap's matter surface offer a contrasting elements to the deep shine of the DB28's case.

Having said that, I would need to see the watch in the metal in order to come to a final conclusion. 

Best,
Magnus

Not sure about this strap Fx

To be fair, I should see it in the metal first before my conclusion.

Thanks for the heads up and the pic smile

I like it...

I tried on one of their proto rubber straps during SIHH week and remember how soft and supple it was.  I actually like the look with this case, gives it a sporty look.  But... their leather straps are one (if not) the best in the industry... so maybe one of each for smart or sporty look smile

the rubber strap is an extra addition and I would love to have one for the summer

Not very convincing. This DB deserves better, IMO. [nt]

I like it as well... makes the watch more versatile

Adds a real sporting element and I think it goes well with the colour of the case.
