A year later, in 2012, Rubber B introduced rubber straps for Panerai and Patek Philippe watches, notably the Nautilus.
From 2013 to 2015, Rubber B introduced a strap designed specifically for the Rolex Deepsea Sea-Dweller.
Between 2016 and 2018, Rubber B developed straps for additional watch brands such as Breitling, Omega, IWC, and the Apple Watch. The company also introduced straps compatible with new GMT-Master II and Air-King models, and added bands designed for dive watches.
From 2019 to 2021, Rubber B introduced a new series named "SwimSkin". Rubber B produced SwimSkin straps for several Submariner, GMT-Master, and Daytona models. During this period, Rubber B also developed straps for newer watch models, such as Tudor's Black Bay Fifty-Eight.
