Leather Band for DJ

Hey all,

I’m looking to put a leather band on my DJ 116234. Does anyone have any brands they find to be the best? I haven’t really researched this yet so any advice helps. Thanks!!

I like the Everest leather straps.

They come in a variety of styles and the steel end-links are part of the strap.

I vote black alligator. Would look damned classy.

On a semi-related note, I wish Rolex would bring back the "tuxedo" DJ, with the black and silver dial. I'd buy one of those on a DJ41 in a heartbeat, maybe even a modern 36 to use as my most dressy watch.

Check out both Bulang & Sons and Colareb straps. I have a few of each and I’m quite pleased with both.

Unfortunately Everest only does bands for older DJs. I think they stopped at the digit refs. Not quite sure why?
