I've recently bought an ancher mono (skw6194, as per photo) as I really liked the look.



I'm not however such a fan of the strap (would prefer black leather). Can anyone recommend anywhere to get a reasonable quality, reasonably priced strap from? A quick google suggest some mainly overseas places of which I've never heard of/used before or international ebay deals. I've rung Skagen but they want £30 for a replacement strap which seems a bit strong to me (especially seeing as its getting on for half what I paid for the watch!).

Cheers

Personally, £30 seems good. I think my replacement TW Steel leather strap was just under £50. I'd rather pay a bit more and it be the original unless you want to change the look completely.

Is it fixed with 2 screws at the back of each side of the strap?

If so measure the width and PM me your address.

I'll post something out tomorrow to try if you want smile

SteveS - If it was a really nice strap I'd agree but as its a lightweight item (~2 mm thick, although admittedly it has to be to fit with the thinness/lightness of the watch itself) its not like its there's alot of material and I wouldn't describe it as the nicest leather in the world anyway, very papery for want of a better description.

Veight, thanks very much for the offer I have sent you a PM.
