I recently found this site: http://www.delaurian.com
Some pretty amazing and interesting work here in my opinion.

I'm in the process of working out a strap for my U1 and amazingly it's not costing a fortune, but it's not extravagant. He's remarkably fast to reply and seems an upright fellow. Just pretty cool to me to actually have a strap made exactly to order! Again, I've not gotten anything from him yet so I'm not vouching, but pretty sure I'm ordering tomorrow. He's quoting just a week delivery, but again, I'm not ordering anything really involved so I don't know if that's usual. Thought you fellows would enjoy looking!

Pretty unique straps. Reminds me of the custom bike shows on the Discovery channel. That kind of thing. Very cool.

I'm getting a wine/burgundy colored 5mm thick leather, 22 mm wide strap, white stitching. I'm having him make it so it's form fitting (hopefully) to the case, no gap, like the watch on the main page. Single keeper, titanium buckle (to match the look of the sub steel. He's charging 103$ delivered, which I didn't think was bad at all (though not cheap necessarily). I can imagine prices would be substantial for some of the designs on his site, but again, for custom designed, one of a kind stuff, you'd expect that.

John,

Shane is a regular @ PMWF and a stand up guy. Buy with confidence from him. I'm thinking about a Black/Yellow combo for my Locman:)

Oscar actually you can mod it a little by slicing a little off each side. This is leather and it is easy to do compared to nylon strap like NATO, ZULU or RHINO.

But seriously 23mm is a very odd size after 19mm. :?

With the Exaggerated Lug design and the Strap fitting very Close to the Case ...One would have to Slice Approxamently 3mm to 4mm down each side...a bit too much ...and the the 1mm difference at the Buckle is Way too tight...the strap doesn't fit into the Buckle easily Oscar actually you can mod it a little by slicing a little off each side.
