TT88 1 Posted March 12, 2013 next should be a gold alligator strap with brown stitch! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
P4GTR 0 Posted March 12, 2013 I hope that AP Bands strap gives your arm AIDS. :(. I have 3 hornback from them already and quite like them. I am sad now Dan. Assuming you're serious, I was of course kidding Jeffy. I'm glad you're happy with your straps. PS. Dont listen to Dan, hes Just pissed his professional ethics wont let him make fake hornback straps Au contraire, my strapmaking friend. My single horn AP straps are cosmetically enhanced, too.. No way around it. I'd bet my life that everyone, -even AP themselves- do it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My single horn AP straps are cosmetically enhanced, too.. No way around it. I'd bet my life that everyone, -even AP themselves- do it. Nothing wrong with it if you disclose that info. Alot of organic things are enhanced with either silicone, implants, inserts ets... But that gives us a reason to charge 400-500 for a "nice large juicy genuine" hornback strap you can only get one from a 600-700 gator hide. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jeffw69 0 Posted March 12, 2013 Jeff, I'm on that list too ... and that strap of yours looks sooooo good & it tickles me. Do you have to specify or is it ready made by APBand? Thanks! I just chose black hornback, then selected the length I wanted and there was an option for rose gold stitching. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

slaughterer 0 Posted March 22, 2013 57th Street is one of the few watches where the gold and SS harmonise together and make sense in the overall design. I got a Donerix hornback in the mail for the 57th street, but it is not black (but brown w/ RG stitching). AP Bands hornbacks fit well, and are very civlized and pristine.

ATEspo 0 Posted March 23, 2013 Nice AP Bands, if I wasn't so cheap I would buy one, but I am going to have one of our strap makers make me one for my 57th. I liked the one Serge posted for sale the other day... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ATEspo 0 Posted March 23, 2013 Whats the bezel made from on this is it RC or ss dlc That's a good question. From the gen photos I've seen it looks like RC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
