«Watch strap ressource» Where to buy good quality leather watch straps

Two folks to recommend, both use good leathers, decent finishing, and solid stitching. And they are both quite affordable.

The first, printhis straps (Ebay, Italy), is definitely on the more affordable end, and a bit more traditional. Piero is wonderful to work with, and really goes the extra mile. When a strap arrived that didn't colour-match the pictures, he immediately sent another, and when that was lost in the post, he couriered a third without hesitation. He does custom work and straps are Euros 35-50.




The second does more creative and variable work, including ostrich, reptile, goat, and various others (NLstraps on r/watchexchange and insta, Netherlands). He is also a bit more creative in his color schemes, and not afraid to experiment. Since he uses premium leathers (Horween, etc.), it's a bit pricier, typically 50-70 Euros, but you can get his stuff on sale for 40. Mohammed is also amazing to work with. When a custom job took longer than expected due to parts and other business, he ended up sending the strap for free!
