custom strap for blue sub with criteria

Hi, I'm looking for a custom blue leather strap to attach to my 116613lb blue two-tone sub 40mm case with the following critiera:

- can attach sub's own deployant glidelock clasp to it
- has curved endlinks that sit flush with the case
- stained in such a way as to outline the grain pattern in a lighter shade of blue (for example: https://thestraptailor.com/products/...ic-blue-orange)

Anyone know who I can contact that could accommodate all of the above criteria?

Take a look at https://dangerous9straps.com/ His custom options are deep.

The above is just one example from his custom strap blog.

Leather straps that are curved and fitted between the lugs, look all kinds of wrong to me.

Would you consider using metal end links? Would open up a plethora of additional strap options and IMO look a lot cleaner, especially when sitting between the fat lugs of a Rolex Submariner?

No one is better than Aaron Bespoke, also goes by Combat Straps. He also makes straps on behalf of some very high end brands.

Go check out his work, and you likely will be sold!
