From the maker in the case of custom ones. I've bought from Marantac for NATO, Gunny Straps for bespoke and some custom ready-made, Hirsch for traditional ready-made.

A lot of ebay & Amazon here as well but its helpful to know the quality of the manufacturer. I found Hirsch to make a decent product. Ive bought lots of natos from the crown and buckle site. You might also try the fratello watches site. They have a section for reviews they've done on a lot of different strap makers. I think some of the folks around here like Everest straps.

For what watch? I usually go with the handmade watch straps from DeLuca (USA) and Ted-Su (HK). You can get very customized with them as well as request rare types of materials and leathers.

Looking for straps for subs and a daytona. I have an early 2000' sub and new sub and 7 year old daytona. It looks like they would all use the same strap width right? I will need to check out some of those sites.

Aftermarket bands
Bulang and Sons which are made by JPM are great. Some really cool vintage style designs as well as straps for modern watches.
Jankoxx who has a thread in the sales section does great custom work. He has custom made me a couple really nice genuine horween shell cordovan straps. Hamilton leather works does great work also.
