There is certainly a time and place for rubber. I'm actually in the market for a OR for my Super Avenger.

Ok , now I didn't intend this thread to start any bickering...just which one's look best on rubber (from the guys who like the rubber).
I think as it was stated earlier, the Avenger series really takes to rubber well.
Thanks for the opinions guys! Love to see the photos! Diversity is the spice of life!

The Breitling rubber, whether it be Diver Pro or Ocean Racer, looks good on any Aeromarine models and some of the Professional models IMHO. Other than the Blackbird, I don't feel that the rubber is a good choice for any of the Windrider line, and that goes pretty much for the Navitimer as well.
Just my humble opinion that the Aeromarine models are all well suited for that look.
Cheers,
Carl

I couldn't agree with you more. My Crosswind and and Headwind are both in steel while the Navi World is on croc. I have tried the rubber on the crosswind, let's just say I knew right away that it should stay on my Seawolf.

Regards,
Felix

To me, only Aeromarine range looks good on the rubber.
