Hi all
I'm new to this forum (been on WUS for a little longer), but I'm excited to be a part of this group and share my love for watches

I own a reverse panda speedmaster racing that I absolutely love. I've been looking for a leather Rally strap for it (19mm lug width) in either black (probably leaning this way) or brown. Of all the straps I've found online, I keep coming back to the strap that originally came with the CK2998 speedmaster, reference CUZ009780. I love everything about that strap. However, maybe it's a matter of principle, I don't want to pay $2-300 for a leather strap. But, as I've said, I keep coming back to this particular strap and love the white stitching and smaller pattern of holes and I think it would compliment my speedmaster very well.

Anyone know of 19mm racing straps that look very similar to the CUZ009780? I fear that, at the end of my search, I'll end up spending the $2-300 on this strap, and I really don't want to...

Thanks in advance. Mandatory picture:

Yeah, I've seen that same B&S strap and actually liked it quite a bit. I'll keep that in mind.
If you ever find your bracelet and want to "get rid" of your leather, look me up!

I would check out Delugs. If you went full custom from him, it would probably be around $200. But I think he has rally/racing style straps in ready stock for around $100.

Hello, I’m also looking for straps and a bracelet for my CK2998. Have any luck?
I ended up ordering from Genteel Handmade close to 2 weeks ago. Will take some pics and post when I get it on my Speedy.
