Tekidonc Posted October 7, 2007 Report Share Posted October 7, 2007 I have seen this watch on the cover of a french watch guide, and could not stay without trying to get one... I have ordered the watch from Josh with a black leather strap, white stiching. The watch went with a quite poor strap (as usual) and black stiching. A white stiching replacement strap ordered from Josh did not prove more convincing. I then started to surf internet and look for Rolex alligator replacement staps...without succes. The only solution was a geniune alligator custom strap, manufactured under my specs by a french workshop in Paris. Everithing has been done by email, 2 weeks after order I received a very high quality product, the result is there... Well, the strap is not precisely cheap (170 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Carl Posted October 9, 2007 Report Share Posted October 9, 2007 The difficulty is that so few want a leather strap for their Rolex the quality is not there. The stitches are large and irregular. Bad stitching is very noticeable with white. the rep straps are very disappointing. But as someone who has always admired a leather strap on a Datejust, a Daytona, or even the right sub, I still have high hopes. Hopefully we will get better leather deployant straps in the future.

Tekidonc Posted October 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 Compliments for the great DJ! Can you tell us were exactly do you bought the strap? Thanks. I bought the strap from "Manufacture Jean Rousseau " http://boutique.jean-rousseau.com/boutique...m?code_lg=lg_us There is another workshop which I think can produce custom straps "Atelier du bracelet parisien" http://www.abp-paris.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
