    Strao like Breitling OEM croc/gator ?

    Hey,

    I like the thickness of OEM Breitling straps. What I don't like is their price.
    Are there any similarly thick croc/gator straps in 22mm?
    Thanks :)

    I have no affiliation with the seller but have found them to be very good for the IWC-style straps and clasps I have ordered.

    There are lots of suppliers but what, for me, separates the men from the boys is the quality/thickness of the thread and the consistency of the stitching. The Hirsch Modena is, imho, the best example of the leather Croc pattern straps. At the high end, real Croc, again Hirsch; Connoisseur, Capitano or, for the deployant, the Navigator.

    There's also the custom made options (ABP, Camille Fournet etc), but they are expensive now the Pound has weakened.

    Many of the eBay straps are OK at first glance but the stitching doesn't stand up to close examination.

    Just my 0.02..
