Revere Posted December 30, 2015 Report Share Posted December 30, 2015 I'm trying to get a new strap for my gen Type XX. It's still got the original from '95 and I'm not sure how much life it's got left in it. Sadly, the only 21 x 16s that I can find are OEM and cost a significant amount. I'm willing to get a rep strap, or if anyone knows of a custom strap maker for a reasonable price, I'd entertain that too. I remember finding a lady from Chile that made exotic straps a while back, she sold things on eBay, and was asking some fair prices. I've since lost that contact info.

I've since lost that contact info.I bought a Caiman strap from her for a Panerai. I wasn't too impressed with the quality. As someone said, Donerix would be the one to go to. He along with any of the other myriad numbers of custom strap makers can make you a custom strap that would be and exact duplicate of your strap. Donerix happens to be here, and is a good guy who makes quality straps.Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike on a bike Posted December 31, 2015 Report Share Posted December 31, 2015 Of course Donerix is top shelf but if you are not willing to spend that much....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
junbug5150 Posted December 31, 2015 Report Share Posted December 31, 2015 Etsy is another great place to find custom strap makers. Just be sure to check out their work as a good % are amatures just getting started. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenTLe Posted January 1, 2016 Report Share Posted January 1, 2016 Donerix for top quality (but on the expensive side).For cheap real croc then you can ask these 2 (the ones MOAB was referring to):http://www.sobek-leather.com/ (around 50$ for a custom made croc one)http://stores.ebay.com/vnhandcraftart (around 40$ for a custom made croc one) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
