Arnitom 0 Posted March 8, 2014 How is the quality of the strap? I have a good eye and this strap definitely is of good quality. This is my second strap from the same seller and I'm really happy with it. Here is a link: http://www.aliexpress.com/store/100286 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pseudonym 0 Posted March 8, 2014 I love the dial on the 029, but that bezel ring isn't to my taste. Nice pick up on the strap! Gotta get involved on Ali expresse... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is my second strap from the same seller and I'm really happy with it. Here is a link: http://www.aliexpress.com/store/100286 Thanks! I'm going to buy this then. I've been searching for an orange calf leather for my 029 but all past purchases have been weak in quality and loose fitting (to the watch). So, how is the fit with regard to attachment to the PAM? I have a black strap that is very tight and snug connected to the watch which is great. My calf straps have a slight gap so they aren't snug. Is yours on the snug side (if that makes sense)? @Meh...I used to feel the same about the 029 until I got it. It's one of my favorites now especially the tuxedo dial! I also now like a non rotating bezel which all my other watches have. It's a new look and fresh change. It think you'd be happy with it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My other strap (brown leather) is pretty tight and close to the lugs, but this one is a little loose (The lower part of the strap when looking at it..hope you understand:) It doesn't bother me though and you hardly notice. I'm not sure if that is the case with all straps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Scottie 10 Posted March 11, 2014 Okay, so I pull the trigger on the purchase through Aliexpress. They take my Visa and debit my account $30 (was debit card and provide security code off of the back). Within the next 24 hours they said they cancelled by order due to a purchase verification issue and then want a copy of my ID...which I scan and provide. The vendor emails me saying that they don't know what's going on with Ali and to discuss with them or my bank. The next email I get is from Ali saying that they now want a scanned copy of my credit card, front side, and a copy of my BANK STATEMENT??? All this sounds like the making of an identify fraud scheme. I told them I'm done with this process and to refund my money asap. The auto email says it could take up to 7 to 10 days. I was extremely excited to get the strap until I got all this pushback. Does this sound right for this online seller??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Have ordered from Aliexpress before and never had as much issues as you are describing. Looked at the seller in the link above and it is the same seller as the guy on ebay I think. They shouldn't be giving you this much grief. I say get a refund and be done with it. Edited March 12, 2014 by edigital Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Scottie 10 Posted March 13, 2014 After I cancelled the seller emailed me and I just PP's the funds to them directly. So, I'll get the strap just not through Ali. Thanks for the feedback. Maybe I'll give another try sometime in the future. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
