I have the same watch, but with the metal face and I've gone through 3 cheap rubber straps in like a year.

Got fed up and bought a metal bracelet instead of another strap lol

Have you tried a nato strap?

Tried a generic strap on mine, looked like crap. Got a legit Casio strap and it's been a beast. You tried the real deal?

I didn't try an official Casio strap, but the one that came with my watch (same as the one listed in the picture) lasted me about 18 months.

The bracelet I got is an official Casio one though. Hoping it lasts many years.

Got mine on eBay from Isreal of all places. Only had it 4-months, but there's zero sign of wear, and I wear it hard.

I agree at some point it's probably worth the investment in the more durable straps you know will last a while
