    White camouflage rubber straps

    I am thinking my 979 will look pretty cool on one of these. Any recommendations for good quality ones would be gratefully received. And pics too of course! Thank you.

    Would not recommend Horus straps Skyman, they get terrible reviews everywhere, they are silicon and not made from rubber and are known to be quite short.

    Certainly not worth the price tag of $155.

    Yep.

    In white (or any Camo) I really haven't got a clue, if it was 1 colour I'd be saying Everest or rubber B

    Thanks for the opinion. Valued. If you have personal experience of the 979, then I might value that comment. Otherwise? Frankly your opinion is worth bugger all. No offence.

    As is your opinion of my opinion. No offence.
    You’re discussing an aesthetic, an experience of the PAM00979 isn’t necessary.

    A tacky strap is a tacky strap on any watch.

    Bonetto have camouflage 1 piece and Seiko flat vent (Bonetto 284). Their rubber is great, just different strap model.

    I picked one of these up for my SD, changed the buckle for the cousins one I had (looks more like a rubber B and lies flatter).

    There’s also MJJ but I think that’s a Horus strap which you’ve been advised against. FWIW I got a Horus strap for my old AP and found it to be of a perfectly acceptable quality.
