Leather Strap for a SS DateJust

Firstly thanks for having an absolutely fantastic & passionate Rolex community.

Im also sorry if this is something thats been covered hundreds of times.

Im looking for a good quality but reasonable prices Brown Leather/Croc strap for my DateJust.

Im fairly heavy on my watches. And my SS strap is taking a fair old battering, So want something that can take some beatings.

Ideally I want it to be correctly finished between the Lugs.

Any recommendations greatly appreciated.

I'll stay tuned, as I too am considering a leather strap for my SS/fluted DJ.

How do you find the Jubilee Bracelet? I swapped mine for the Oyster!

Ive only ever worn the Oyster but everyone seems to prefer the comfort of the Jubilee?

Try The Watch Boys

I have a couple of their straps. Good quality for the prize. Good to start with.

I wear my tt jubilee in the summer, and leather in the winter. The leather looks much nicer with george's (smartyjones18) endlinks. He's a member here on trf. Drop him an e-mail, he'll take care or you! Chech out mine.

Another vote for Goerge's endlinks. He's a great guy to deal with.
As far as the band, try hirsch leather (spelling). You can also find PLENTY on eBay. Got few from there, too.
