In 2010, Rubber B introduced the first curved rubber watch straps for Patek Philippe Aquanaut watches. These were notable because, at that time, consumers did not have any readily available options if they required a rubber watch strap for their Aquanaut watch.
Rubber B has recently released an updated version of this strap for the newest iteration of the Aquanaut, the 5164. Rubber B continues to set new benchmarks with the quality of its curved rubber watch straps as the company’s artisans continually refine their already rigorous process of creating these straps.
A Brief History of Patek Philippe
Patek Phillippe watches are some of the most finely crafted timepieces in the world. The Swiss watch brand has long been considered one of the premiere watchmakers currently in operation today. Since its founding in 1839 in Geneva, Switzerland, the company has been crafting timepieces whose quality rivals other well-known Swiss watchmakers, such as Rolex and Audemars Piguet.
The Aquanaut is arguably the company’s most famous watch. Inspired by the sea and nautical exploration, the watch combines an adventurous design with the kind of precision calibration and quality manufacturing that can only be seen in Swiss watches.
An Unmatched Commitment to Quality
Rubber B is continually inspired by the companies for whose watches their curved rubber straps are made. As such, they seek to not only meet but exceed those standards, with each hand-finished watch strap they produce. The company always sets out to craft curved rubber watch straps that are as luxurious as the watches they are made for.
This commitment to high-quality products and their continued spirit of technological innovation has positioned the company as one of the leaders in its field.
Rubber B’s Unique Process Combines Technology and Craftsmanship
Each hand-finished watch strap uses a unique proprietary process that Rubber B has spent years carefully refining. This includes making changes to the rubber at a molecular level, involving precise micro-calibrations and calculations.
A vulcanized rubber strap attains a tight, motionless, rotations, and gap-free mount to the intended watch head. This ensures that the strap does not bend under pressure or tear when being moved.
This makes these curved watch straps especially ideal for those watch wearers who lead an active lifestyle. Their durability ensures that they can be worn while running or swimming and not suffer significant damage. This is also artistically appropriate, as it mirrors the adventurous and rigorous spirit that defines the design and inspiration behind the Aquanaut.
The Future of Rubber B
Rubber B will continue to find new ways to innovate and create in the field of producing luxury rubber watch straps. Its creative team seeks inspiration from both the history and legacy of Swiss watchmaking and how technology has allowed for the future development of products whose quality will only continue to improve.
When Rubber B was founded, there was skepticism over whether consumers would consider rubber a “luxury good.” The company has more than proven that consumers have indeed recognized the quality of their gorgeous rubber watch straps over almost two decades in business, and will continue to do so for years to come.
