Ska 11 Posted August 28, 2010 Hi Guys, I've just posted a review of my latest acquisition, the Jaeger LeCoultre Master Tourbillon from Mary. The watch itself is incredible, so now I need a strap which does it justice. The rep has a decent enough strap compared to most chinese offerings however one thing that really bugs me (and actually makes a BIG difference to how the watch looks on the wrist.) is that the strap has straight ends whereas the real deal has curved ones which follow the shape of the case thus: I've found a couple of straps online which look perfect like this one at www.watchstyle.co.uk However having just spent over $500 on the watch I'm loathe to spend a further $270 (£174) on a strap, at least for the time being, but I also don't want to just get a $40 Hersch strap. Soooooooooooo I thought I would defer to the wealth of expertise resident here on RWG and ask if anyone knows if there is a place where I can find such a strap at a better price. (perhaps there is someone in China who makes them?) Anyway - I now leave it up to the floor......... Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wombosi 0 Posted November 26, 2010 (edited) What do you think about a Sirtoli strap Ska? Does that look like anything your looking for? Here is a link to their site. EDIT: Just checked the OP date and I'm guessing you've found yourself a decent strap already... Edited November 26, 2010 by wombosi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
