Alternative Camel Trophy watches straps?

Just for sharing opinion.
CT Watches were last produced in year 2000 or before. Earlier watches were produced in 1986. Some of them came with stainless steel bracelets, some with velcro straps and most of them came with leather straps. After more than 15 or even nearly 30 years, these straps especially leather ones were either used, damaged, deteriorated and become unuseable and not many genuine replacement straps available around nowadays.


I have been trying to find these as well and difficult to find. I tried to fix with alternative straps that may look like original CT straps, even with Camel Active ones, but they did not satisfy me until I found these handmade, no branded genuine leather straps (made of real crocodile or ostrich skins, normally padded with cowhide). In my opinion, these straps keep the "adventure" spirit in these watches and they feel very very nice to wear too. They may not look perfect, but they are unique & genuine!
