klocklind1 Posted May 11, 2011 Report Share Posted May 11, 2011 Have anyone bought this strap? It looks like the genuine IWC kevlar http://www.strapcode.com/store/21mm-sportracer-type-kevlar-watch-strap-black-stitches-p-1353.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafi717 Posted May 11, 2011 Report Share Posted May 11, 2011 It looks like the genuine IWC kevlar The only difference being that the original IWC is completely flat. Here you have the rise above the stitching. Never the less it looks like a great strap. I was considering buying it from them on ebay. ----> strapblog Can anyone confirm its made from kevlar?

Check the springbar tubes, the reps are much sloppier whereas the gens have nicely fused tubes and clean edges. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dparm Posted May 13, 2011 Report Share Posted May 13, 2011 Genuine also seems to have a tighter weave and a more matte appearance. Have yet to find one that's a good copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clkcadet Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 Can anyone recommend the strap from watchboys? It looks great and I need something for my 3717! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sempire Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 Can anyone recommend the strap from watchboys? It looks great and I need something for my 3717! I was looking at the watchboys strap as well. I have seen some closeups on other forums that were iffy... if i can't find a good kevlar rep, maybe I would think about leather probably..

permabull Posted July 28, 2011 Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 TopGun V2 is the best version 'kevlar' strap, Pentax1 you could use one of those as a sample for your maker. I'd be in for one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
