Silverspeed 10 Posted July 15, 2010 Just got this beautiful (at least I think it is...) A.Lange&Söhne Datograph in rose gold...bur as usual the standard rep strap has to go as with most rep straps it's made of plastic, smells weird and black is the wrong colour....imho I would like to get a good gen brown croc leather for it....and I've been looking at the straps from thewatchboys.com but was wondering if any of you know of more strap makers that make these for a reasonable price? Here's a pic of the gen Datograph And here is my rep on the black (crap) rep strap Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dingle 57 Posted July 15, 2010 I will be getting mine from watchboys..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greg_r 81 Posted July 15, 2010 Stunning watch. Agreed about the brown croc, but other than ABP or the watchboys, have no better suggestions, I'm afraid... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Silverspeed 10 Posted July 15, 2010 ABP straps are stunning but a custom made strap will cost around €250,- a bit to much for a rep watch.... So far this the best alternative...methinks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

greg_r 81 Posted July 15, 2010 Yup - I think so too. Frankly, I really don't think you're going to find a better strap for that kinda money unless Bob Bean is able to produce something (but then import might be a problem). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ska 11 Posted July 18, 2010 God that's a beautiful watch! Who did you buy it from? Do you mind me asking how much? You seem to be able to take photos which enhance the watch perfectly with almost no obvious effort. Fantastic! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
