manfredzaturek 0 Posted March 27, 2016 Hi I've bought an IWC BP TG from Andrew. The watch is great, but the nylon strap is pretty low quality and quite ugly. Anyone have any ideas where to look for a replacement? I'd keep the buckle and the clasp and just buy the strap itself. Thanks for you ideas IMG_1970 by Manfred Zaturek, on Flickr 11 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jrlmsla 0 Posted March 28, 2016 I like the idea of the traditional leather nato style strap that you see on historical b-uhr watches. Such as: Maybe updated as a nice clean black version would compliment your modern "vintage" Big Pilot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Abe Fromen 1,619 Posted June 1, 2016 He's not on the TD list but I just received an Orloff strap, custom made nubuck black gator with grey stitch and red eelskin on the inside for 95 euros. I've owned straps from all the big name makers and this thing just blows them all away. HIGHLY recommended. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cleebeauregard 2 Posted September 2, 2016 +1 on the Orloff if you want gator- great strap for a decent price. If you want the nylon or Kevlar look, I'd suggest checking out the ballistic straps made for IWC by Rios1931 (it's a brand, not a member, lol) on the Bay-- they also make a nice buffalo leather pilot strap for under $50. Trusted strap makers here are always a good choice-- I've got a JohnG (Nero) on my Spitfire that I'm very, very happy with. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
