Rubber B is an American company that designs and sells vulcanized rubber watch straps for luxury mechanical timepieces.[1] It is headquartered in Miami Beach, Florida.[2]

Founded in 2010, Rubber B manufactures its products in Switzerland and is known for developing rubber straps for watch models of brands such as Rolex and Panerai.

History

Rubber B was founded in Switzerland by Arnaud Benjamin. It began producing rubber straps designed as alternatives to traditional metal bracelets for luxury watches.[3]

In April 2011, Rubber B launched its initial collection of vulcanized rubber watch straps. The first straps were designed specifically for Rolex Daytona and Rolex Submariner models and featured a "blocked integration" method.[3] A year later, in 2012, Rubber B introduced rubber straps for Panerai (Luminor models) and Patek Philippe watches, notably the Nautilus.[4]

From 2013 to 2015, Rubber B introduced a strap designed specifically for the Rolex Deepsea Sea-Dweller.[5]

Between 2016 and 2018, Rubber B developed straps for additional watch brands such as Breitling, Omega, IWC, and the Apple Watch.[3] The company also introduced straps compatible with new GMT-Master II and Air-King models, and added bands designed for dive watches.[5]

From 2019 to 2021, Rubber B introduced a new series named "SwimSkin". Rubber B produced SwimSkin straps for several Submariner, GMT-Master, and Daytona models. During this period, Rubber B also developed straps for newer watch models, such as Tudor's Black Bay Fifty-Eight.[3]

Products

Rubber B produces vulcanized rubber straps calibrated for specific luxury watch references, maintaining compatibility with the original deployant. In 2025, Rubber B introduced Rubber B Connected, a series of straps with embedded NFC chips, which are integrated to specific Rolex watch models.[2]
