Pure B 0 Posted July 2, 2015 Hi guys, I just got this croc strap in for my girlfriend her IWC. Paid $35 including shipping for it. The quality of the strap is superb for the price. It fits like a glove, the edges are rubberized nice and even and it's a nice piece of genuine croc skin. If anyone is interested,the sellers name on eBay is: vnhandcraftart Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wolfwood 4 Posted July 2, 2015 I couldn't find a seller under that name. Can you give me a link to his auctions? Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phizzy 0 Posted July 2, 2015 That looks cracking for the money....even if it was double the price, that's still good value. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cannibal 0 Posted July 2, 2015 Nice score! I have purchased three gator belly straps from Vietnam via ebay from linh7620. I would guess she does watch straps part-time as her communication is slow and her shipping is also on the slow-side, ie. five weeks from Vietnam to eastern Canada. That said... the straps are great! Well made fit perfectly and fully customizable on the order for size, colour and style. Her straps are US$30 shipped, IIRC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ruski91 1 Posted July 2, 2015 ^^^ I have a thread about these guys going on over in RWI. There are a few sellers from Vietnam selling at this price. Reall croc straps too. I have 2 straps on order from Linh and i know it will be slow but the results will hopefully be good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pure B 0 Posted July 2, 2015 Vietnamese strapsellers seem to be able to get croc skin for a good price. The shipping from this seller was pretty quick, got it in 2 weeks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GenTLe 1,509 Posted July 2, 2015 Vietnamese strapsellers seem to be able to get croc skin for a good price. They are plenty of crocodile farms. Old article but still interesting: http://www.atimes.com/atimes/Southeast_Asia/DH20Ae02.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
