Nato/Bond strap question

Interested in getting one of these. Is there a preferred brand or vendor? are they all the same quality thickness etc. The Nato one seem long I guess you need to double the end any info appreciated. I've seen them from $16 to $40.

Cut the strap to length and touch the cut end with a flame to seal it.
I also chop off the case locator and the extra strap keeper.
Otherwise the whole thing looks too clumsy IMO

Hang on I'll take a couple of pix of my new one.

The strap is from watchadoo on Ebay.
He is an Aussie seller and I have bought quite a few from him.
Try this item number 310349467099.
