On a side note. Single pass through are my favorite type of strap. I love how they charge 10$ more for a simpler strap with less material then a NATO lol.

I like the idea of the convenience of quick release spring bars, but are they decent quality, or is it safer to get the strap without and use my oem Omega spring bars?
Im specifically looking at this strap:

You are correct that it requires less material. However, the $10 premium is due to shell cordovan which costs significantly more than regular cowhide.
My default single-pass straps are all made from shell cordovan. Since its only a single layer of leather, I intentionally picked shell cordovan for its firm/dense profile.
With that being said, there is no price premium if one prefers a single-pass strap made from cowhide.
I hope this somewhat helps to explain the difference in prices. Please let me know if anyone has more questions!

I've never seen a situation where the watch falls out due to the quick-release springbars malfunctioning. However, you should use the OEM springbars if that makes you feel more comfortable.
