WHAT ARE THE MOST STRIKING RUBBER STRAP COLOUR COMBINATIONS YOU CAN WEAR?

It’s that time of year again when the weather starts to get cooler and we start to wear our warmer clothes. A rubber strap is the perfect strap to wear on your watch as it does not change temperature all that much compared to a metal bracelet. No one enjoys having a cold metal bracelet around their wrist, and even though it does not take long to heat up, rubber is still far nicer. When it comes to rubber, there are so many different colour options you can choose at ZEALANDE. So, today we are going over the most striking colour rubber strap combinations you can pair with your luxury watch.

When it comes to personalising a watch, few elements offer as much immediate visual impact as a rubber strap. Once purely functional, rubber straps have evolved into expressive style accessories available in endless colours and textures. You don’t need to look any further than Omega or Rolex to see it is a premium strap choice for their watches too! Choosing the right combination can transform a watch from sporty to sophisticated or from understated to bold. Some colour pairings are especially striking, allowing you to make a statement without compromising wearability. There are a few key colours that not only look striking on the wrist, but also pair nicely with almost all dial colours.

RUBBER STRAP FOR OMEGA® SEAMASTER DIVER 300M CO-AXIAL 42MM WHITE CERAMIC ZEALANDE

One of the most consistently eye-catching combinations is a stainless-steel watch case with a bright rubber strap. Colours like red, blue or vivid orange instantly energise the silver colour of the watch case, creating contrast that draws the eye. Sport and dive watches benefit most from this approach, an orange strap on a black diver, for example, is not only stylish but rooted in functionality, as orange remains highly visible underwater. The result is a look that balances practicality with personality, much like it would with red.

The advantage of red is that many brands use bits of red colour on their dials and bezels as it helps for legibility. Take the Omega Seamaster Diver 300 M with its red ‘Seamaster’ lettering and second-hand tip, or Tudor black bay 58 with its red triangle dot to mark the 12 o’clock position on the bezel. A red ZEALANDE strap would perfectly tie the colours together and give you a fantastic striking look.

Another standout option is the white colour combination, either a silver coloured or gold case with a white strap. White rubber straps have a clean, modern character that magnifies the vibrancy of any colour they’re paired with. A white strap alongside a black, blue or red dial creates a crisp, nautical feel, while pairing white with gold accents gives the watch a surprisingly luxurious, contemporary appearance. The crisp luxurious feel of a nice white rubber strap always is certain to catch attention in a subtle way. Another key advantage to white is if you are planning to use the same strap on a few different watches, white is a great colour to choose as it pairs with everything making it more versatile than all other colours.

The classic monochrome look will never go out of style and always look amazing with any dial colour or case material delivering a striking result. Wearing a watch with a dial, case, and strap in variations of the same colour, like charcoal, silver-grey, and graphite, creates depth through tone rather than contrast. This strategy works especially well with rubber straps in black or grey, which catch the light and add dimension to a restrained colour group. Whilst not as perhaps eye-catching as say red, the black or grey rubber strap offers a strong look that will always match any outfit you wear. If you are someone who likes to mix between wearing different colour outfits and monochromatic ones too, then a black or grey strap is likely the most suited one for you.

Finally, for maximum visual drama, Miami blue. Nothing screams Summer is here or the snowy ski slopes are ready for you to hit like Miami blue. It matches the colour of the eye-catching crisp vibrant blue colour of the water out in Miami and with that colour on your worst you can guarantee everyone will notice it. Because the colour is so vibrant, it is best if your watch dial is either black or white as this will best contrast the Miami blue strap. But, as far as striking combinations, you really cannot top this one, so if you want to make sure your watch has the most amount of wrist presence, then this is the colour to choose!

Rubber strap colour combinations can be as subtle or as adventurous as you like. Whether you prefer bright contrasts, clean tonal setups, or carefully coordinated coloured straps to match the dial., the right rubber strap has the potential to redefine your watch’s entire personality. ZEALANDE has been perfecting not only the quality and design of their rubber straps but also the colour options available to you. ZEALANDE knows that many of you enjoy having different forms of stroking looks so that is why for many of their straps you have 12 colours to choose from!
