maxse Posted February 18, 2012 Report Posted February 18, 2012 I had a nice Alligator strap made by him several years back and am ready for another. However, I can't seem to find him anywhere. Is he out of business? If so, can you guys recommend an excellent strap maker who could make a nice Glossy Alligator strap? I am looking for Honey in color most similar to the OEM Honey Alligator. Thanks.
Guest zeleni kukuruz Posted February 18, 2012 Report Posted February 18, 2012 He is stil in the strap biz from what i know!
seafoam Posted February 18, 2012 Report Posted February 18, 2012 He's got a section over at RG: http://repgeek.com/forumdisplay.php?f=61
frankt Posted February 19, 2012 Report Posted February 19, 2012 I heard that a bunch of Croccodiles captured him, and used his hide to make a bunch of watch bands.... :pimp: ;) 1
asciwhite Posted February 19, 2012 Report Posted February 19, 2012 I would use a human leather watch strap The ULTIMATE predator on your wrist..
relaxman Posted February 19, 2012 Report Posted February 19, 2012 He is all over timezone.com as well. Just ordered another strap from him last week. Aarontanhk@hotmail.com Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
spooky driver Posted February 19, 2012 Report Posted February 19, 2012 i heard a while back that his turnover time was about 6 months is that still the case Relaxman?
relaxman Posted February 19, 2012 Report Posted February 19, 2012 Depends .. Usually I ask him if he has in stock what I want then I place the order. I've heard these horror stories over the years but personally never had a issue.
maxse Posted February 20, 2012 Author Report Posted February 20, 2012 haha thanks guys, already contacted him and placed an order. He said it would take 2 weeks.. On another note, how accurate are the 24mm rep Panerai polished buckles? Never really looked into it.
relaxman Posted February 20, 2012 Report Posted February 20, 2012 Can't answer that. Never ordered one of his buckles.
mikellem Posted February 20, 2012 Report Posted February 20, 2012 You can reach Aaron at Aarontanhk@hotmail.com. He will answer you very quickly.... He is just busy working with lots of customers.... Send him an email, His work is better than ever. MM
maxse Posted February 21, 2012 Author Report Posted February 21, 2012 Thanks guys already ordered. I didn't mean his buckles specifically. I meant a buckle from one of our dealers? How good are the regular style rep buckles? In terms of how close are they to the gen?
Seadweller4000 Posted February 21, 2012 Report Posted February 21, 2012 Took him 9 or 10 month to deliver. But then again, that was 2 yrs ago and I think one strap was lost in the mailing progress and he had to build another one from the scratch. Looking back at the quality I received, I would order anytime again.
