Good day all!
I’ve been out of the rep game quite a few years however as well as enjoying my Rep and Gen collection, I’ve still liked picking up accessories & straps for my various watches with some easy go to sources, I recently bought a Gen Tudor day-date and got a new bracelet for it from raffles along with a blue leather strap from Aliexpress.
I’m on the waitlist for a BB58 Navy Blue and I was just wondering if anyone knew where I could source Replica Tudor Fabric NATO straps, I’ve heard I could be looking at around £200+ for the originals and the AD told me that I would only be able to order the colour that matches the watch I purchased, I love the feel of the Gen Tudor fabric straps however I often like to change up the look of my watch.
I’m not expecting the quality or feel to be exact, the Tudor straps are painstakingly hand woven in a very silky material on traditional looms in the same place that makes the ropes for the Vatican from what I have heard, but a nice quality rep at a reasonable price would suit me just fine.
I understand that some of the ZF Black Bays used to come with a free strap of this kind, which certainly looked the part, just was wondering if any factories out there are still making these as they look a lot more boutique than a regular NATO.
I had a search on here and hadn’t seen a topic relating to this so thought it may be helpful to others seeking the same, I have also emailed a couple of TD’s to see if they can source so if I hear back I will of course update the thread for those interested!
Thanks again and looking forward to your replies and as always top class assistance! Glad to be back!
