Acceptable leather strap for Daytona
Is there a leather strap that is offered by Rolex as a replacement? If not, can anyone recommend a high quality alternative?

Acceptable leather strap for Daytona
Need a bit more context to your question before any recommendation can be offered.
First off, my answer is based on modern 6-digit Daytona - not the the vintage models. If your Daytona was made with a bracelet, then Rolex doesn’t make any strap replacement for that model. If your Daytona was made with a strap then they do make different styles and colors but limit the sale to ones that were originally delivered on the model you have. The watch case is actually milled with a different profile for the endlinks on original bracelet vs. strap versions. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Rolex straps are available in the correct sizes that they use on their Cellini watches, but they do not come with a clasp. Older tang straps can also be found, but you need to also find the tang buckle. The usual complaint with a strap is the gap between the case and end of the strap. Original Daytona strap models have a modified case that includes this gap-cover built in. You can find aftermarket gap fillers and we discuss one of those vendors here. https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=368717
