Crafter blue or Everest for Black Bay?

Post by deepcdvr » Thu Jan 17, 2019 8:06 pm

Folks,

Had a crafter blue for a marine master and thought it was awesome. Of course, it employed the MM ratcheting mechanism, so that was a plus.

I’m looking for a quality curved end strap for my Black Bay - any recommendations? Anyone have one for sale?

Thanks in advance! :cheers:

I think Everest is longer that RubberB, but it could be the other way around. There was a good comparison on Google.


BTW, what do you mean “my Black Bay” ???? You’re just holding it for a friend!

I have an Everest. Feels substantial on the 14060M.

Thanks dudes - I’ll do some more research; definitely need the shortest strap.

I traded the black bay with black bezel for the BB Steel with date. Only a few days into it, but I think I may have found my “one watch”? Absolutely love this piece on the bracelet for wear with suits and on the OEM NATO the rest of the time. I’ve tried it on multiple leather and rubber straps but the lug gap bugs me so I need the fitted rubber.
