Hello all,

I am looking for a rally strap similar in appearance to the one in the attached picture, for a watch with 19mm lug width.

My normal go-to for leather straps is Hirsch however they don't have any in this style and 19mm size.

I am looking ideally to spend under €100 however I do want a high quality product that will last a good few years. Deployment buckle is not a must for me though.

What brand/strap do you guys recommend ?

I think that's the same strap, different vendor.

Oooohhh, looks like a nice 7721 to me, could just about be a 7723 though.

Good recommendation! will probably order this unless I can find something better at a local store on Monday.

Perhaps Ralstra has the right one for you? GLC also has amazing rally straps in the price bracket you're looking for. I suspect I know which watch this request is intended for... Good luck finding the right match! 😉

You could also contact Torre on IG. Always great quality and attention to details. I did get a few racing straps from him. Don’t have pics to share right now though…

You've caught me! and those do look very nice, just need to decide on a color I think.

Have we seen this blue Hamilton chrono-matic before? We could now be at five in OF 👍

Counting double is better than seeing double, right?

I second @Optimizer13 (Veblenist mentioned above) and another member of our own, @Norfolk , is making really great looking Rally straps. I’m keen to try one of his but the watches I would wear them on are all off being serviced at the moment.

+1 on the cordovan straps. They are excellent in quality and mine holds up well even after 3 years of use (I also sleep with my watch on). Stock can be limited at times though

The tag says it’s a Fluco- they make excellent straps (I have several Fluco straps). Holbens also carries them for those in the US.

If you want a vintage look in Europe try Abel Court’s straps
