In my opinion, all the Montblanc Star Legacy are with real alligator straps.
Edit; apparently they offer embossed also: https://www.montblanc.com/en-nl/wrist-watch_cod19971654706565981.html https://www.montblanc.com/en-nl/wrist-watch_cod45666037505093653.html
So yours might be also.

Not really an identification post, but just for reference: water bison, from a vintage pair of Crockett & Jones.

After a lot of investigating I have come to the conclusion that it is embossed. I see a lot of descriptions that say alligator leather which I think is a sneaky way to say embossed. Authentic straps usually state so on the strap. Whatever it is a moot point since I have a large wrist and the strap is too short. I replaced it with a cognac brown authentic extra long crocodile strap. The original is going on eBay as genuine Montblanc "alligator leather strap"
