First i would like to say thanks and I've learned a lot about reps from you guys and am currently waiting on my first reps: a Noob DSSD V7 SA3135 and JF AP 15400 black dial 9015 from chazingtime.

In the meantime, I do have a gen Titanium Tag that puretime calls "Carrera Calibre 16 Day Date Chronograph Singapore Limited Edition Red" that i've worn very little due to the deterioration of the strap.

Gen: http://www.calibre11.com/carrera-titanium/

Apparently it has a "ETA/Valjoux 7750" which is interesting after reading so many bad things about the rep 7750 (i hope gen isn't as bad). But the reason I haven't worn it for a while now is that the strap peels off, lost its carbon fiber look and is almost unwearable due to cracks in the calfskin.

The link above has comments talking about this issue and how it costs $500 to replace, and it's also discontinued. I'm wondering what my options are in terms of straps to make this baby wearable again !
