448 on Wotancraft Legend

The OEM strap that came with the 448 is just about the nastiest OEM strap that I've seen!

Ordered a Wotancraft Legend 74 that just got here yesterday and I LOVE IT!!! Fantastic quality although a bit pricey. Fits great but I'll have to order it with a bit longer tail next time.

AGREED

My 448 sat for 2 months when I got it before I got other straps, the OEM strap on that and the 372 were just HORRRRIBLE!

Very nice look

So very nice, that combo is a stunning vintage statement.

Cabaiguan, at your convenience, would it be possible to get more photos? I've been bouncing between the 1950 and the Legend #74 since they seem so similar in the Wotancraft site photos, but with a distinct price difference between the two. The L#74 is slightly thicker, with a more involved construction and finishing process that easily justifies the price disparity, but I'm still on the fence.

Is it as comfortable as it looks? Lately I've been breaking in so many straps that it feels like everything I've been wearing has been somewhat stiff, at least for the first few days, and for a change I'd like something soft and comfortable from the start.

Congrats on the killer strap, and enjoy your weekend, all.
