well i agree about the (sometimes...) poor quality of the strap on REP TAG Heuer
anyway, i've got a "Monaco" (blue one) and the strap is quite good enough and the blue color is nice.

if you want some aftermarket strap for your TAG-Heuer :
amazon.co.uk with these 2 sellers
(Watch Strap World : http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aag/main...=A1F83G8C2ARO7P&orderID=&seller=AE9R922A7UI57)
(StrapJunkie : http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=bl_sr_watch?ie=UTF8&field-brandtextbin=StrapJunkie&node=328228011)
Watch Obsession (http://www.watchobsession.co.uk/)
Watch Band Center (http://www.watch-band-center.com/shop-watchstrap.html)

these sellers are offering great range of product with very good quality : just make up your choice !

You also have a bunch of trusted strap makers on the forum that can also make you a custom strap.

Rep leather straps are pretty bad, and imo many leather straps on <$500 gens are just as bad

This.

In all seriousness, most leather band straps are just bad, rep and gens.
A good strap can elevate the watch 3 notches higher, its one of the main tells of a rep.
Why spend $500 on a rep and neglect the strap.

Kopcap, links are great mate, you've just costed me a money :itchyandscratchy:
