Great UK-based seller of budget straps

Recommended Posts

Needed to pick up a replacement strap for my 'Mini Egi' and didn't want to spend too much dough. I will probably order a hand-made strap from Getat before much longer, but I wanted something decent in a hurry, so returned to a UK-based strap dealer from whom I've bought before.

 

This was the first strap I bought from him earlier in the year - a cracked leather 'vintage' style strap for my PVD radiomir ( the photo doesn't do it justice). The strap is one of the softest I own, is incredibly comfortable and very well made:

On the basis of the above, I went back to him again for this one:

Again, it's as soft as butter, beautifully made and exceptionally comfortable. It even came with a decent buckle.

 

The thing that separates these straps from the rest of the competition is the price. I paid less than £20 each including shipping ($30-ish). They'd be great value at double that.

 

For anybody interested, the dealer is "sectime" on eBay UK and these straps are from his "Panor" range. Highly recommended :beer:

Not everyone is into fastening watches to their wrist with a luggage strap either (or a pair of Grandad's braces) :lol:

Hey, I'm a grandfather - but even I wouldn't use a pair of my grandfather's braces as a watch strap... This is a style issue, not an age issue :lolcina:

Thanks for the link, I think I'll have a look on there for a decent croc for my IWC rep - the standard plasticky item looks ok but really isn't fitting for what is an expensive watch in real life...

I don't know what his other straps are like, as I've only had the two PAM straps from him but I can tell you that his ebay photos of the PANOR straps really don't do them justice, so hopefully the same will apply to the others.
