Hello,

there are pretty shitty and it doesn't fit the 2000v , the 2000v has a slimmer bracelet.

i think the bracelet you show us is the same i have ordered.

I have ordered the straps you are referring to in black leather and a soft rubber version also sold on DHGate/Aliexpress. Both are just way too low quality unfortunately and you will regret purchasing them. Not only that, but the fit is off as well. I've been looking for black rubber/leather straps for the VC Overseas 4500v and haven't found a good alternative. I think splurging on a gen strap may be the only good option.

What's the measurement on the straps that you've purchased from DHgate and Aliexpress? is the width 25mm and the notch 9mm?
And what is the measurement of the XF 2000v lug width and the notch?
I have an Overseas watch (not from XF) and am wondering if the straps from DHgate and Aliexpress fits mine

Yes both straps are 25mm x 9mm. It won't fit if you have the 2016 4500v Overseas

So the newer Overseas 4500 series is 26mm? And the previous Overseas is 25mm?

The newer Overseas 4500v is 23.8mm and uses a very specific strap (quick release)
