scotty Posted September 7, 2013 Report Share Posted September 7, 2013 Hi all. My v2 top gun strap is cracking round the hole i use and I'm seeing the top layer looks like plastic. Been googling but anyone have a recommendation of where to get a good replacement? Could be kevlar, nylon or sail cloth. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TmeShare Posted September 8, 2013 Report Share Posted September 8, 2013 (edited) There are a few of the black nylon with an IWC look on ebay. TimeShare Edited September 8, 2013 by TmeShare Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbie888 Posted September 9, 2013 Report Share Posted September 9, 2013 I have the Rios 1931 Albatros for my TG double chrono, measures as the original, only a bit too shiny. The best i have found so far. I found the strap from The Watch Boys not so good, good solid "kevlar" but too thin at the sides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigga Posted September 9, 2013 Report Share Posted September 9, 2013 There's a seller on eBay that peddles straps for Parnis IWC homage watches, they should fit your Top Gun perfectly. No idea about quality though. http://www.ebay.com/itm/22mm-black-fabric-Leather-Strap-Band-PILOT-fit-parnis-I-W-C-top-gun-series-044-/321033712420?pt=US_Watch_Bands&hash=item4abf19b324 http://www.ebay.com/itm/22mm-black-fabric-Leather-Strap-Band-PILOT-fit-parnis-I-W-C-top-gun-series-051-/221200550543?pt=US_Watch_Bands&hash=item3380948a8f http://www.ebay.com/itm/22mm-black-fabric-Leather-deployment-buckle-Strap-fit-parnis-mens-watch-TT-044-/320985745138?pt=US_Watch_Bands&hash=item4abc3dc6f2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

esco Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 Hadley Roma straps are another great alternative, they typically run around $25+ and are very well made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotty Posted September 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 Many thanks. Does Hadley have a website? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esco Posted September 13, 2013 Report Share Posted September 13, 2013 Here you go! http://www.hadleyroma.com/2013HRCatalog.pdf I personally like the MS851(leather) and MS850 (cordura). Could probably squish the 22mm into the 3789 since it has 21mm lugs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
