[VDBroucke]

wow nice...
i have not to big straps but watches...
here my small versions for vintage part 1

 

[tutima]

Hey...H_U.....I want that K. Wong Sharky....

Nice collection of watches and even nicer for the straps....

 

[horologie_unitas]

very nice VD !

@ tutima: the KWONG sharky were custom made ( like any straps from KWong) i paid 125$ for it....its very special.
i dont think i want to part with it -

but i am sure KWong will make you one, depending on availability of the shark hide. i waited 5 weeks for mine.

I know...But I don't have the patience to wait 5 weeks....

That Caltravara bull strap on the base is very nice too....

its so rare to find either one of these straps used. i would say impossible. Caltrava posts a ad every 3 month and charges 130 Euros for a strap
( he is from spain )....but he offers custom made ones prepaid.
the KWONG...i had one made in 26mm and one in 24mm.
make me an offer - but ...i do not really want to sell them....Greg Stevens are way more easier to get......

That is some serious eye candy.
Thanks for sharing, knew all of those straps you snap up in the sales section have to go somewhere
I will revisit this post whenever shopping for a new strap to get creative inspiration.

Dare to state your top 3 straps?

Cheers,

So what do you guys do. Just change straps out all the time?

 

[doctorron]

Awsome HU.

 

[horologie_unitas]

very honestly,
i do not want to sell any of the straps pictured. i had 80 straps at my best time, still have 35-40......and these are the ones i like most.
( besides the ones i would love to have and cant afford....Delaurian, Kaktus, GaboMagic,Rob Montana, gen PAV - but i have a limit how much i spend.
i only very rarely bought a strap for more then 130 $. this is a hell lot. also i am not willing to spend 230 $ on a new MarioPaci.
but a new strap....makes your watch new.
i remeber selling a Greg Stevens crazy horse in here......that nobody wanted to buy.....for a whole week. i ended up sellin it for $ 80.
same strap sells for 150 nowadays. should have kept it !

Don't really want to take your favourite from you...Enjoy them...You have an awesome collection...

I'll look for it somewhere else although it is really hard to find one as you suggested.
