Manufactured in Italy, Bonetto Cinturini rubber watch straps are the standard when it comes to quality rubber straps. This one, the model 317 is simplistic in design but a superb performer.

Hirsch Ayrton Performance Strap

We have talked a lot about how good the Hirsch Performance range is so it should not come as a surprise to see two of them featured in this post. The first of the two is the Hirsch Ayrton which draws its inspiration from the world of fast cars. It has the unmistakable hallmark of all Hirsch Performance watch straps which is the breathable natural rubber core. This award winning design is one of the most comfortable watch straps on the market and comes highly recommended by us and your fellow watch enthusiasts. For this strap, we imagined that it might thrive around a golf course where the wearer needs to be laser focused on their round and not worried about their watch strap failing or being uncomfortable.

ISOfrane Rubber Dive Strap

The ISOfrane name has adorned some of the most iconic dive watches ever made but that is not to say that they can be used exclusively for diving. Despite the fact that it is the dive strap of choice for the pros, the ISOfrane straps are also ideal for use with activity watches thanks to the precisely cut out holes that run down the spine of the strap making it breathable. This strap is designed to withstand some serious punishment out at sea so it is more than capable of hitting an exercise class with you.
