The watchbandsource guys are scam artists. All of their stuff is fake. You can tell by the bags and the deeper panerai engraving on the back of the straps.
Are you talking about the same dealer i got posted in this thread??

Rudy, the fitment of this strap between the lugs leaves much to be desired. Look at the extra space. :(

When you're ready for another non-OEM strap, get in touch with me.

Yes, same dealer as in your first post. They go on ebay by 'watchbandsource' or 'watch-band-source'. All of their stuff is fake, the bags are a dead giveaway.

I thought they were the ones others had complained about, but wasn't 100% sure. But I'm glad someone confirmed. A few others have been scammed by these guys. Apparently everything they sell is rep with rep bags.

Hi i have bought 2 straps from watchbandsource.com, THEY ARE FAKE! DO NOT BUY FROM THEM! of course at the time of purchase i had no idea the OEM deployment buckle itself was already 2-300 bucks, so looking back if i had known, i def would have steered clear of these guys

RUDY...

FAKE Straps.. do NOT buy from that ebay seller! Actually way worse than the crap rep straps we all throw away! I've reported them 20 times to ebay with no luck getting him shut down.

Nick you have to play hardball with that scammer.. but no matter how long it's been get your $$ back man! Don't let him get away with it! He will pretend to the end that his straps are gen, I've tried 100 ways to get him to admit it but he won't and pretends to be legit.

Cheesmonger... if you got yours from that same guy. It doesn't matter how old it is send it back and tell him send your $$ back or else!
Sad that a Pam AD can't verify a bag if I read that right? You can spot a rep bag by the ALL caps and the font quality a mile away. On gen straps the stitching is perfect, SUPER easy to tell.
Watchbandsource... SCAM no question whatsoever, all rep stuff for sure.
