    One of my favorite YouTubers is Patriot36 and his watch is a Luminox diver (discontinued) but I really like the strap, I tried looking it up but cannot find it on Luminox website or on Google.

    The video is entitled EDC/USK Backpack 2012 1/3 and its in the first section.

    Here is some mediocre screen shots.

    It’s a pretty standard/generic rubber strap: the molded area around the lugs wouldn’t be there for leather, and leather is almost always lined so you’d see a separate color on the inside. Plus, you know, diver. For something very similar check out panatime or the stock marathon straps (though the buckle on the latter is signed).

    So you dont think its a Luminox band?

    I checked out Panatime and do see one that looks very similar, its a silicon band.

    Thanks for the suggestion they have quite a few nice bands.

    I don’t think it is. I’m almost certain the watch is an 8301 and if you google it you’ll see that the original strap has a sort of molded border and a pattern inside that.

    Luminox isn’t really my thing but I don’t remember seeing any rubber straps from them that don’t have at least some adornment: a molded channel along the border or maybe up near the lugs. Also, every Luminox rubber I’ve seen has the shield near the lugs at least on the inside, if not on the out, and the inner surface is more of a brick pattern than the grid in the second shot.

    Okay, thank you for the information. Luminox isnt my thing either lol but if its an aftermarket strap thats fine with me. 🙂
