    Hey everyone,

    I have a 35mm Seamaster Mid with 18mm lug width and I am struggling to find a good rubber strap for it. I am looking for a SeaMaster style rubber strap similar to what the full-size watch gets. The bracelet that came with my Seamaster is in very rough shape and isn't long for this world. I'm hoping to keep with the aesthetic and find an 18mm rubber strap in Omega style.

    Do these exist? I am having a very hard time finding them. The ali-express/ebay examples seem like very poor replacements and all the 20mm straps I like don't ever seem to have an 18mm option. I have reached out to multiple vendors regarding this and keep striking out.

    Thanks in advance

    Where in the world are you?

    ps the mid 90s SMP middy was 36mm if that is the model you mean.

    I'm in Western Washington, United States.
    2551.80 is the reference number for my watch.

    I know it’s not what you’re asking for but I have one of these on my FOIS and I’ve been really happy with it.

    Have you thought of trying a Perlon strap?

    Honestly for the price and Amazon's return policy it's worth a try.
