Orloff seem good, but often depends on what croc leather he has and what colour he stock. before ordering send PM to Mario and ask what colour skin he has in stock.

I normally browse his site, then give him the reference number to a strap I like and ask for that finish and usually he has stock of the same hide and makes it for me.

3rd Party I would say Rios or Kaufmann. They are quite good quality hence the price point.

If looking for Santony Style I would go to LPVleather (quality for as good as Rios / Kaufmann)

Ok so, it's officially 72 hours, just got in fir the office and it's still got the correct time and the PR is practically on zero, so it officially lasted 72 hours in my watch box from full PR.

Here's a photo and video!

Sorry, I have all 3: LPVleather, Kaufmann and gen IWC. LPVleather is good, but miles away from the excellent quality of Kaufmann or gen IWC. Kaufmann and gen IWC are identical in quality, but Kaufmann is 30-40% cheaper than gen IWC.
