Recommendations please

Post by DISJT »

Hi,
I'm after some recommendations please for leather strap suppliers for the 38mm Trident.

Ideally
1) Black leather
2) padded
3) curved spring bars
4) quick release (this isn't that important)

I know I can get then from CW at £55 each but as I need 2 I was hoping there might be a cheaper alternative?

I do have a Hirsch on my Trident Vintage, just wondering about alternatives.

I've searched watch gecko, eBay, timpsons, watch strap store, watch battery uk, watchband centre, amazon.

Cheers
Chris

Try checking Watch Obsession.

If you're happy with Orange, CWL have got the C61 strap, with fitted ends IIRC, that should fit in their Autumn Event.

Thanks GUY, I shall check out watch obsession.

Couldn't live with orange I'm afraid.

I have already bought straps in the sale as they were a great price and I can get away with the XS, but the illusive 20mm , padded , black ,curved wasn't available.

Ordered Di Modell Nevada strap from Watch Obsession's eBay page late on Tuesday, Arrived in post this morning. Great service, thanks for the recommendation GUY.
Its doesn't have curved spring bars, isn't quick release and it's not padded but it is thick and so achieved the desired effect. I'm very happy with it.
