Masterspiece, known as Bob, shares his personal 'rubber surgery' experience, detailing his decision to replace the steel bracelet of his Rolex Milgauss with a custom-fit rubber strap. His post captures the excitement of customizing a beloved timepiece and the quest for a strap that not only fits perfectly but also enhances the watch's unique aesthetic, particularly its green sapphire crystal.
This Milgauss has a much more understated and sober look now that it has undergone some rubber surgery! May I ask what clasp you use for this strap?
I do love the Watch a lot, and the scenery as well. I am less fan of the strap. Ok, it is practical, it may be comfortable, but aesthetically, I am not sure... A Nato can do the job in a better way, maybe? But that is just my feeling. Bravo for the Watch! Best, Nicolas
is the one from the Milgauss. I had an option to choose the existing clasp or a tang. I chose the clasp, of course. Aloha, Bob
Yes, a nato would do the job but I wanted something a little different, something to use the Milgauss clasp. At a quick glance, it kind of reminds me of a JLC(?). I'll post more pictures of the strap and write a little blurb about it as it is somewhat softer, maybe more flexible, than most other rubber straps. The nato may be closer than you think. :-) Aloha, Bob

As for the Nato, which one are you considering? Ciao, my friend. Nicolas
