Custom Strap for Tudor GMT

I am always looking for optional straps for all of my watches. So when I purchased the new Tudor GMT i was looking for options and found this rubber and canvas strap, except that I did not like the way it connected to the case. I found some end links on Etsy but they wanted $70 for them, so I tried the original end links that came with the Tudor and cut the rubber strap to fit. It came out great, but still need to tweak the strap to fit better. What do you think?

Yeah, it's tough to make that cut look OEM to my satisfaction, I've tried.

Instead, I went w/ Smarty Jones end links so I could use different straps.

Dan - I like those end links. May have to break down and buy a pair. Did you get those from their web site - smartendlinks.com? Which ones did you purchase as I did not see a reference to the Tudor GMT? Thanks!

Thanks, Vance.

I bought my 16710 end links when smarty jones offered them for sale here on TRF. Not sure if I bought the Black Bay version [which fit perfectly] end links the same way or from their website, sorry.
