Best are from jacob in Spain!

He uses metal inlays like the gen.

I tested them all

I ordert a brown strap made from calf leather

And an real alligator strap in black

210€ but a different quality ,donerix straps have no fitment in comparison

Even Jacobs Ap Stras are like gen

Well pricey eclusive hornbacks are 250€

Are you confusing metal inlays for the AP strap. the bang strap doesn't use insert. smplover making the nicest strap so far and include the extra stitch on the clasp end next to springbar. all the other strap maker just make two straight stitch no joint

SMP is no Strapmaker,he has some who makes the straps!
Regards

I did not take it as an insult but i felt like i need to clarify something.

Yes i do not cut the leather, stitching, assembling and punching but without my direct participation there would not be any straps.

First of all i study the specs, buy the watches and do all the r&d for the inserts myself, and it takes time. The first AP inserts took me several weeks of to produce with more than 10 versions till i was happy with the final result. The same story with hbb, and for LW it will take the same time and legwork.

I am not the artisan, but without the right mechanic you cannot deliver a technically complex product, which are the straps that i release.

Sorry my friend,this is not a good strap fit,you are wearing a rep of a 15 000$ watch!

But the strap dont match the standart!

Stitches are also all over the place.

Compare it with the fitting of SMP lovers straps

Combo is very nice by the way

Eric use plastic insert for the Hublot strap.

Here's a sample that I bought.
