watch straps

[scooters]

Hi All,

I'm after a bit of advice please. I've got a tag monza (wr2110) and the strap is beginning to perish. I'm looking for a genuine replacement brown croc strap but cannot find anywhere which stocks them at a decent price.
Does anyone have any suggestions where to look? Also, I'm assuming that I'm correct in getting a tag replacement strap or doesn't it really matter?

Any help/advice greatly appreciated.

A tag replacement strap will be very expensive. Try watchworx.co.uk or rlt watches for a new strap.

I priced up a Panerai at a AD the other day....croc was £180, deployment £300+....no change from £500

That's just crazy. What is so special about the clasp? Is it made from finest unobtanium?

Di-modell and Hirsh are my favourites

Some nice straps there, I wouldn't put most of them on a Panerai though...

And their Gator ones (which are presumably their equavalent of a croc) are 140$ with a rather fetching skull and cross bones etching.

Personally I think I would be spending £180 for a strap on a genuine £4k watch.

Watchbarn.com sells decent straps at good prices. I have bought several and his straps have lasted me for a long time and they are well made. Sells primarily to the US I think.

All, just a quick thanks to those who suggested a toshi strap for my watch in the op. Received the strap today and the quality is right up there. Service just as good. - Highly recommended.
