I've been looking around for a nice brown leather strap to wear with my Breitling Aerospace Evo Night Mission for a little while and today I've found one I really like from Bulang & Sons. The only problem is that it's around £100 which is at least twice what I was willing to pay.
Here's the strap: https://www.bulangandsons.com/watch-...tch-strap.html
I was just wondering if anyone as come across one like this or similar that's more in the £30-50 range? Ideally with black stitching to match the black titanium of the watch and if I was being really fussy I would prefer 20mm buckle instead of the 18mm on this strap.

Not sure what thickness you're looking for but how about the GasGasBones Horween leather strap (35 quid)? The leather is incredibly supple. You can specify the length and he may be able to do black stitching for you too. You'd need to wait for his next store opening though.
Thanks for the suggestions. I did look at the Watch Gecko straps and they're in the right arena but they don't have one with black stitching and I couldn't see anyway to customise it.
The GasGasbone one sounds good - what do you mean by shop opening? Does he only make straps at certain times?
I've found a guy on Etsy that makes something similar and he says he can make what I'm after for £36, but I'm just waiting for a picture of the leather he'd use to make sure it's what I'm after.

I bought one for my Stowa Partitio and it's a lovely strap. Supple and a proper leathery smell
Or these?

These all have natural stitch though, but you could colour them with a black permanent marker. I've done that before and it does work.
As had been said, Pav for sure.
I've seen, (and now own) some of his work and it's outstanding, especially for the price.
Sure steveostraps does something similar to this. He can usually do the stitching in whatever colour you want as well.
