Will any leather band fit a Rolex Datejust, or only from Rolex?

Want a Datejust with leather but am getting conflicting info regarding leather bands to replace original from Rolex. Will any old leather band fit on the datejust or only those specifically from Rolex? Many, many thanks fellows.

20mm lugs will fit. Try Strapped for Time or The Watch Prince (both online). You'll want to get minimal padding to pair with the slight weight of the DJ.

Just make sure you go for a good croc or alligator strap.

They can be had for $100 +.
