Only problem I found with these
VN straps is they are usually too Short.
Buyer beware. Ask for the size you need
Even if it has to be custom.

Got the straps today. I think there might be some language issues, he obviously did not read my mail about the custom length order and sent me two nice standard length straps.

Tandy Leather has a sale on odds and ends of Crocodile hide. Smaller sections and strips that look suitable for watch bands and in several colors. A one pound pack for circa $10.

Very strange seller. Ordered 4 straps but did not receive a normal reaction. So I cancelled it and got my money back from PayPal...

I just tried to order a strap yesterday and I got an error message from Paypal about the email address. Too bad, these folks were great. I've ordered from them before.

Anyone else have any recommendations?

EDIT: I just received an email from the owner to use this site: http://worldwatchstrap.com/

I was able to place an order an pay with Paypal. We will see how it goes.

Yes, this is the same seller as with me. I'm curious if you will receive it. Could you let me know? After two weeks I still did not receive a tracking code and the seller did not respond on my questions. By the way, do you think this could be the same seller?

No issues with this seller, or the strap that I have from them.

Good comms, and sent a couple of pictures of the strap to me, before shipping.

I'd reach out to the seller again. I've bought one band from them, and everything seemed to go ok. You can tell that English is not their first language, but they seemed like decent enough people. The good news is that since the payments are through Paypal, my guess is that it would be fairly easy to recoup the payment if the band was never sent. The quality was very good for the price, which is why I am going back to them for a band for my Speedie.

Not sure if that is the same seller from the other forum.

Below are some photos of the band I received from them for my Cosmic. Please do not redistribute the photos, as it would void terms in my wrist modeling contract.

Hmmm. Maybe I was a bit to harsh...

Just got my Vncrocsell strap. Looks great imo. and under $30.00 with shipping. One problem, too thick for my Seamaster Deville. Looks good on my Lecoultre though. Sorry about lousy photos not my forte. Thanks for recommendation Dan.👍

I got these a while ago, I like them and they readily fit my 7 1/2 inch wrist. My main issue is that they’re a quite “animally” as you can see in the pictures.
