Best place for watch straps in NYC?

Looking to pick up a leather band, any recommendations on where I should pop in to?

Thanks in advance for suggestions

Would love to see some answers here also. I really like the plain leather straps that are commonly seen on vintage subs. I don't know what they are called but I see them all over the forum. I'd love to get one in NYC.

I'm in NYC and have yet to find a decent strap around here. That said, you will not find any better or more beautiful than those made by Jean-Paul Menicucci. You could order directly from him, or shop for them at Bernhard's great website, Bulang & Sons. They'll be coming from Europe, but I've never had an issue after receiving dozens of them over the years.

And here are some of my JPM straps from Bulang & Sons...

Grahame Fowler in the Village, look it up. They have a wide assortment of original, made in the UK, Phoenix NATO straps as well as leather straps (including cordovan) by Bulang & Sons.
