F15DOC Posted May 11, 2009 Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 I am looking for a Big Pilot black strap, with the buttons, not the crock strap. Anyone lead me to a good rep strap for a reasonable price? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F15DOC Posted May 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 I am looking for a Big Pilot black strap, with the buttons, not the crock strap. Anyone lead me to a good rep strap for a reasonable price? Wow, nobody here is willing to help a guy out? The strap that came with it looked fine but it must have been poor quality because it tore all the way across where it connects to the watch....

deltatahoe Posted May 11, 2009 Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 given the value of the gen, there aren't a bunch of sources of "cheap" straps for the big pilot. your best options for aftermarket straps are hktan, strapluxe (although i wasn't very impressed with their brown calf strap) and frogman straps (here on RWG). hope this helps deltatahoe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F15DOC Posted May 12, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2009 (edited) That OEM brown strap looks like the one I have that tore. How much is he asking for the black one? $140 is more than I paid for the rep (used), not looking to drop near that much on a strap.... That black is beautiful!

That black is beautiful! what you will find is that the cost of the rep watch and the cost of a good strap will not make any sense at first.. a lot of members actually invest in the genuine strap which is more than twice the cost of the rep. but what you may realize is that the strap "will' make the replication look great !! it's like rims and tires on a car.. the "profile" is wicked.. here is a look at the OEM spec "distressed" buffalo for my 5002 from Aaron the distressed buffalo is one of my favs..

Second, is it junk? The price is right. Edited May 19, 2009 by bizta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docdoc Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 Anyone could tell me what is the width of strap to be use with the 3717 ? I measured it and I found 21 mm. Does it sound strange ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChipSlap Posted May 25, 2009 Report Share Posted May 25, 2009 Strange but correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unkindone Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 whats hktans email? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChipSlap Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 Try this one. I just received one the other day and I'm satisfied. Admittedly, it's no HK gator strap, but it is pretty good for 25% of the cost. http://www.thewatchprince.com/watch-band?s...sort1=Item_NAME Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
