What kind of strap ?

If you are looking for a regular strap, you can order at panatime.com
if you want a more special strap you can try kain heritage.
both leather or croc...etc.

I am getting this watch soon (I wish), can you post some pictures when it arrives ? can you send me qc pics in pm ?
thank you .

D.

Here is a nice gen leather strap that fits perfectly the black one with rose gold hands:

Fspot, where can one buy this strap? Probably a naive question, but I haven't seen it anywhere...

Look at my initial post: "Here is a nice gen leather strap"
It's a gen strap and buckle, it means you can get it from a Montblanc authorized dealer.

What you're looking at here is a gen watch too. The rep is pretty much spot on, except the AR on it is nonexistent, which makes a difference. I'm trying to do an aftermarket AR on mine and I will post pictures when done.

Yeah, I saw that, but unfortunately I don't live near any Montblanc dealers. I was hoping you might know where one can order it online (genuine) since I can't seem to find it even on the Montblanc website, where one can order watches, just not their accessories. I've contacted the nearest boutique in Boston. We'll see what they say. The "contact boutique" option on the Montblanc website is a little wonky, so I'm not even sure the message went through.

I just received the Timewalker Chrono Auto SS with black face and rosegold (as in your pictures) from Marvellous Replica, but it was DoA. He's going to fix it or send me a new one after the Chinese New Year. It's beautiful otherwise.

Carbon fiber straps are kind of interesting...

I doubt you can order the gen strap online. I bought mine from an AD. It's not the one pictured, it's more sporty and with the same copper stitching . Neither of them are featured on Montblant's website but can be found in a dealer's catalogue.

I found out today that the Timewalker black leather strap with the rosy/copper stitching is $120 directly from a Montblanc AD, in case anybody cares about specifics. And they do allow phone orders, which is good to know.

Did you see it on their website? Are you sure it's the same as the one pictured here?

No, I haven't seen it, but I talked to a rep at their boutique and told her I was interested in the strap used on the US Special Edition, and I described it to her fully just to be sure, and she said that yes, it is in the catalog. This is the one I described:

Montblanc TimeWalker Chronograph Automatic Club Brown - US Special Edition



You thinking there might be multiple bands similar bu not identical to the one pictured? That would suck. I haven't ordered it yet because I'm having difficulties with my rep order from MR. It was DoA, and he's trying to fix it.

Yes, I think there are. The one you're talking about is this one:

106582_l.ashx





There is also this one (very dark brown-graphite with copper stitching), which I've bought from an AD. The photo is crap (colours are off), it looks much better:

And there is the one posted earlier (dark brown with copper stitching ):

montblanc_image_2074603.jpg



The colour of the stitching on the last two straps is identical (like on the last picture)
