Can someone recommend a commercially available leather strap that is real thick and does not taper? 20mm is the size I need.

 

Thanks

You're right...sometimes I get a strap in 3 days....other times it's 2 weeks!  The service is a little flaky, but for the pricing, if you are not in a hurry, you get some great buys.....and his $15 Pushbutton butterfly deployants are the best out there!

Watchprince and others will give you great service....I just wasn't sure theirs were non-tapering!

After looking at all the bands I have changed my mind, I now think a Bund strap would be best. He has a great one for $15.00. This is the watch I want to put it on.

I have bought several bands from the watchprince, but they don't have a bund.

Randy Nilsen on the 'Bay has nice Bund straps, just do a search for Bund and his store should pop up.  He is a pleasure to deal with, as is the Watch Prince hand6.gif  (I just snagged one of their carbon fiber watch boxes with the 3T discount smile8.gif)

Cheers,

Outstanding and suits the OceanMaster (I think) well. Where did you end up getting the strap from??

Here is a direct link to Fredawatchstraps and a 20X20 Hadley Roma double stitched strap. I'm sure you'll find others. Great service from Ken.

When I had a Kobold Seal I had a similar one made by Kobold. I just wish I had only paid $89.95.
