Look good. Price is great. Anyone have one and can comment on the fit and finish?

I may get one to try it out cause the price is so tempting.

I just got one from his for my MH, still on the way here. Look nice in a good price imo and i found out from Sharrkey that have bought from him before that his strap comes with inserts.

Good price / quality ratio. Have one on my MH. But the best AP hornback strap I have was made by Jacobstraps. Looks better and is more comfortable than the one from Orloff. Pricier though...

NO. Like I've told you privately, you get what you pay for.

HKTan, Jacob, Migliore, APBands, all are better options.

Hi BMW - would you rate those strap makers in that order too?

In my opinion

OEM
Jacob
HKTan ( if he used inserts he would be #1 )
AP Bands
Dan @ Migliore
SMP Chrono

Dan and SMP have limited hide colors. I've had so many different straps , and I really think in giving you guys an educated opinion. The ones I left out, are not even to be considered. Please remember that you get what you pay for. If a strap is $99 , there's a reason for it.

Thanks BMW.

Your thoughts are most welcome. And you have now confirmed my reaserch.

As a UK based member, any strap makers outside Europe is a pain in the butt for time it takes for delivery. I have an order from a strap maker not listed here but I'm now in my 4th week and still no sign of it.

I will go with Jacob and where possible OEM.

Think Orloff looks great, but i stick to Jacob also for his great after sales service.
Had a small issue with a strap, and he wants customers 100% satisfied.
So he offered no bullshit but a completely replacement with a new to make strap.

My Orloff hornback arrive today. From the day that i confirm order to the day i receive QC photos is around 5 days time which is quite fast. The quality of the strap is well made, nice and soft. Well worth strap for the price for it imo.

Some photos of my hornback strap to share.






:cheers:

I hate to be a downer but... why does the strap for your AP have an Officine Panerai logo on the back of it?

Lets see fitment at the lugs. Looks similar to Donerix straps which have a gap the size of Kim Kardashian's birth canal.
