tommylad 0 Posted September 15, 2017 So, I'm about to get a BP 42mm Planet Ocean on a bracelet. I used to have one and it was the comfiest, best looking watch I've had on my wrist. My question is: how good and soft are the rubber straps which are an option? Worth getting for around $100 in addition to the bracelet? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thommo82 1,397 Posted September 15, 2017 In my opinion you should always have at least 2 strap options for each watch. In the case of the PO I would definitely go for the bracelet and the rubber strap, which I think looks great. I have a dirt cheap 'Gate PO Pumpkin and I played around with leather and canvas straps and nothing (IMO) suited it. So yes, rubber up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tommylad 0 Posted September 15, 2017 This was my hunch. Had an old style rubber strap on my old UPO and loved it. Just wondering how good the new ones are... I like the fact that rubber straps with most reps are well-made. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SuperbMonster 4 Posted September 15, 2017 I have 42mm PO and would recommend some rubber. It is super comfy on the bracelet but a rubber strap give it a different look and prefer that for anything sporty. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I like that the newer iterations make it fairly straightforward to change the strap/bracelet too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
