Aftermarket strap recommendations

[johncortilet]

I’ve got a Wimbledon 41 that I want to get a green leather strap for, maybe to wear during March. I know it’s controversial but I like the look so I’m going to go with it. I know Horus is good for rubber, but I think I want to go with a nice leather option. Any recommendations?

Thanks

Rolex cases do not play well with leather. The strap will get chewed up where it sits closest the case in short order. If you're dead set on doing it my recommendation would be to contact someone like https://www.aaronbespoke.com/ and ask for his advice on/assistance with making a custom strap with an integrated end link. Something similar to this:

Ahh is that right.. I suppose I will go with a rubber one then. I know Aaron does amazing work though. Thank you very much for the insight, much appreciated

Absolutely. If you're willing to go rubber instead of leather that should make your life a lot easier, and will undoubtedly hold up better over the long haul.

Check out Dangerous9 straps. They aren’t inexpensive and lead time on custom work isn’t quick, but they are beautiful.

TunsLeather on Etsy makes really good leather straps.
