    Hi all
    I have a lovely Seamaster Chrono 2225.80 on a SS bracelet
    I am looking to dress it up with a rubber strap.

    My thoughts are either to go with a Blue or a burned orange strap

    Please give me your suggestions on the options of rubber straps - brands / color choices.Photos please if you have this watch on a rubber strap :)

    I like the color or orange on this ORIS

    I have a modified black one on rubber. It was built up by a friend from a water damaged one I found cheap!

    Zealande is an option. I don’t see your exact model reference, but you can email them to confirm fit. I’m partial to black but they have a variety of colors.

    I read somewhere that the OEM rubber strap for the new wavy dial/ceramic SMPs fits your watch with some difficulty.

    May I suggest Blue Isofrane? Soft & supple, breathable -- soooo comfortable!

    (I seem to have a "thing" for them -- these are not all of my Isofrane straps)

    22mm Black Omega like the one in the 4th picture, feels nice when worn.
    I sold my Seamaster with its original steel bracelet, this is left in the drawer. 82163334-6B74-421C-B058-BB215FED0B69.jpeg 2A403977-F24D-4D5B-9CEA-90D3086BF97C.jpeg

    Less fitted but quite comfy and durable is the Bonetto Cinturini 300D. Here's mine:

    It's reversible (flat on one side and diamond patterned on the other) and has a built in deployant.

    I saw Zealande, felt it was the best looking (though most expensive) option

    Tried the Zealande on my 2016 Rio edition, very well made but a little too long for my smaller wrist.
