Thought I'd see what the fuss was all about and ordered a £2.65 one off eBay to test the water. Really comfy !

Ok I have the black and silver one above that people thought was the James Bond colours and I have a plain black version.

You can get some bad ones and good ones. I had a reasonably priced eBay one (the real James Bond colours wink ) on my old Submariner and the buckle popped open which did some damage to the Rolex banghead

And another that gave me a rash from some poor stitching.

I've got one that I wear regularly from Watch Obsession on my bi metal TAG Heuer 1000. I'll grab a picture in a minute. It's wonderfully comfortable and secure.

So I make sure they come from trusted sources now (Timefactors, Watch Obsession and a couple of others)

Got me paranoid now with my £2.65 eBay effort lol. Looks great quality though and can't see it slipping apart - famous last words as the 2 week old Ball goes for a Burton 😆

You'll probably be fine! They're not expensive to make. I probably just bought a crap one

Good straps. I tried to order that one you have from there earlier this week but Eddie was closed until further notice
