lexidium 88 Posted June 8, 2020 Just ordered the 2018 large Santos with quick change strap. How do these straps compare? Is there any scope for changing them or are you just stuck with buying a genuine one? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
G_sus 481 Posted March 12, 2021 Came in here to ask a similar question Looking at a piece with a leather rep strap - Just worried I’d be stung with a £600+ cost for a SS or leather replacement Really would put me off purchasing this piece if I can never get a replacement strap...

deju 1,647 Posted March 12, 2021 they are pretty good to be honest, some will even take a gen strap like the BVF, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
movintage 2,253 Posted March 12, 2021 (edited) The Santos has a unique lug end like no other, just like APs have their own type lug end. I would thing the very talented TanGo could make one if you send her your rep strap as a donor for her to use for the new strap. A number of years ago there was a leather Smith, Henry Tan in HK that made beautiful Santos straps by using the rep lug ends. I also believe Jon Bond of Bond Tailored Straps made them too. Worth a try to reach out to TanGo or Jon. Good luck Edited March 12, 2021 by movintage Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
