I just purchased a new watch that came with a metal band, but I'd like to mix it up. I've seen some nice straps by some members on here, and I was wondering if anyone can recommend a seller for a quality strap for a good price. Thanks!

I have the Camille Fournet matte golden Brown Alligator, but with tool springpins - FREAKING GREAT STRAP. Expensive, yes, but stunner.

Check out The Watch Boyz and Strapluxe on google or ebay. Also, go to timezone.com and there are members always selling in the sales forum there.

Nola, I need a watchband that's 22mm, or .86 inches. I'm afraid your watchband might be closer to 16mm (.63 inches).

For some of the best watch straps around I would rec. Sirtol.com. Lou is a great guy and can make custom sizes and lengths. Good selection. They last forever. The quality is worth the price in my opinion.

Good luck. Greg

Be careful, some watches with a metal band cannot accomodate a strap because of the case and lug design.

I ended up buying a band from Freda Watch Straps, and I highly recommend them. I got a great genuine alligator band at an awesome price. Very nice guy and super fast delivery.

Do you mean Sirtoli? I'm happy with my straps from them.
