malloc 0 Posted February 4, 2015 I saw the pic below of a vintage leather strap on a bell & ross 126 and fell in love. There's a few threads around on re-creating the look from a new strap. I'll give that a go if I can't find one, but does anyone know somewhere to buy something similar pre-stressed? Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

malloc 0 Posted February 4, 2015 is the watch a Rep. or just a pic of the gen. The pic is a gen. You can get a cheap quartz rep of the B&R 126 vintage though, but only the black dial version, not the cream (last time I checked, anyway, don't think it's changed) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greg_r 81 Posted February 4, 2015 Talk to one of our trusted strapmakers - I'm sure one of 'em can do something along those lines for you... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
peteins 3 Posted February 4, 2015 https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/BlackForestAtelier?ref=shopsection_shophome_leftnav Check this guy out, i have bought two straps from them and both have been amazing. for the price, I think they are one of the best, they also offer custom straps! there buckles are nice too, I got the bronze Sub one and its by far the best example of that style of buckle I have seen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trailboss99 994 Posted February 4, 2015 Gunny does a lovely strap much like that, have a look at his BlackBay series (I have one on mine). He's not cheap but the quality is unbeatable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
