Alternative Straps

Been wearing a sports Rolex for a few years now and thoroughly enjoy the Oyster Bracelet. I also enjoy throwing them on a Nato or an Everest rubber strap from time to time. Variety spices things up.

Where do you folks shop for your leather straps? I have tried a small handful and they are either uncomfortable or cheaply made and don’t last. Thanks in advance!

I have a nice leather strap from Martu Leather. She gives flexibility on the length. Too many sellers have only one length. I don't use it very often but it does make my 16570 Polar a little more dressy.

Look into Fluco (German made) leather straps on Amazon. They’re sold by Holben in the Seattle/Bellevue area. Actual real leather, not the “particle board” of leather. High quality. $40 range.
