Brilliant Viktor.....what animal skin is that? Some eastern euro X USSR Ukrane squirrel skin? :rofl: Like a squirrel asso'le?

This AP Diver is one of 2 AP I can even get my Texas head round. Looks kick ass though.

That black strap looks goddam sweet.

I have too many AP straps on order already.

So it's dam annoying I can't place an order just yet.... I have more straps than APs.

I assume the new ones will fit better since he's now using inserts.

Full props to SMP_Lover for brining something unique to us AP fans.

Plenty suppliers of the hornbacks, gator, and some even with canvas. But you've innovated and we applaud your efforts.

Much success to you.

Isn't the saffiano leather made from calf skin? My Prada bag is made with saffiano and it claims it is calfskin (I believe...may have to check when I get home from my trip).

I think the name refers to the texture??

Quality: 9/10 easy. Looks great, feels great
Fit: I have the previous version without inserts and even that is cut so well that there is just minimal gap at the lugs. This is the one with inserts so it will fit way better!

Yes saffiano is a textured calf leather.

So.... I've pulled the trigger and paid the dollars for an XS sized saffanio black strap for my diver. In this hot weather, that rubber is just too goddam uncomfortable.

So, the diver gets a treat and Victor has been great communicating.

The guy is so conciencious at this rate he should become a trial TD in short time IMO.

Thanks Vic, I look forward in seeing the strap.

I hope you won't be disappointed, and will enjoy your strap as much as i do mines.

As for TD status, hopefully it will happen one day.

Jacob straps is well respected AP strap maker. Not a TD but gets props and business from the forums.

I would rate Jacob as second only to oem. His hornbacks are real ones like oems and he uses the similar method as oem.
