Hi Corey,
Thank you for the positive feedback! Depending on use and wear and tear, the lifespan on our rubber straps are typically between 6 to 18 months. As the strap is exposed daily to natural sweat, bacteria and dirt this can cause the band to wear a-lot faster. A change of strap is recommended every 18 months at least.

“I’ve had my 3050 for years and of course over time the original strap dried out and fell apart (as expected with rubber and wearing it everyday in the sun). The new strap went on easy and works great! I prefer the rubber strap because easy to clean and the watch stays on when in the water. Shipped and arrived quickly. Thanks!”
“My original band had stitches which made it a bit stronger. This one has no stitches. So when it starts to break, like the last one, there will be no stitches to hold it together while I order another one.”
Thank you for providing this feedback Ron. We value the feedback from our customers so that we can continue to improve. If you have any issues with your new rubber band please dont hesitate to reach out to us.
We will pass this along to our design team.
