mr.tourette 111 Posted November 11, 2021 Am I better off asking a TD? was looking to buy the beads of rice style rubber strap with folding clasp for my rep avenger but have also spotted this on fleabay https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/203464041403?var=503808878816 not sure if its a decent price or not or if the quality is better /worse than a td as I've not really bought rep straps before.

Howitzer 1,980 Posted November 11, 2021 If you want higher end factory rep straps then I'd say you're better off asking a TD, especially for a better quality deployant clasp. Personally I use AliExpress for rep straps. Had a few rep asso Panerai straps and different rubber straps and they've all been pretty good quality. You'll probably end up paying less than half the price as that eBay one and getting exactly the same strap, albeit with a longer wait. The criticism of Breitling straps of that type (in the reviews I've read anyway) is that the strap is good but the clasps are garbage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Buy a gen - only £60 - get the clasp off AliExpress £10 much better option than those on EBay and not much more. https://www.breitling.com/gb-en/straps/rubber/ https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005003192261501.html I thank you......
