I have the custom looking Benarus rubber and metal strap set for my Barracuda. 

I LOVE how soft and comfortable this strap is!

The downside.  The rubber is "tacky" so it wants to pick up, lint, dry skin, you name it.  :?

I wash it and it quickly get's dirty again.

Any tips to help keep it clean?  I'm a bit of neat freak, so yes it bugs me! :P

Have to agree with you on this one.

 

Love the awesome custom strap!!hand6.gif Looks really cool with the metal bits on it and fitted end links. But by the end of the day there is always stuff clinging to it. This is the norm for silicone straps AFAIK.

I find myself giving the watch and strap a good wash every couple of days Bouncy.gif

Yeah, this is why I never mess with anything marked 'silicone'. It is really soft and comfy, but it attracts everything. Look for real rubber straps. Usually a bit more expensive, but well worth it.

Yeah, I need to concur with this thread. I just tried on my PVD lume dial Sea Devil with the Silicone strap and it almost immediately turned speckled with lint from my tan cotton coat. I think I'll be putting this strap back in the box. I'll give the included leather strap a try.

Anyone have other suggestions for a strap that would look good with this watch (PVD lume dial Sea Devil)? Please include links to a source when making a suggestion.
