Welcome to 3T, your straps look great, if you are selling them you should list prices for them and the material they are made out of...a couple of these look like exotic skins ThumbsUp02.gif

Your straps look very carefully made. I like themThumbsUp02.gif

Would you have any distressed and vintage-look tans and browns?

Would you have sparta buckles?

Do you stitch initials on the keepers?

I received the 2 nubuck stamped straps I ordered from Mario last week and they are awesome imo!....very soft and supple with a rich look and soft leather lining... the comfort level is like a nicely broken in leather....Mario was a pleasure to deal with and I had to place an order for that new Ostrich he just posted!!... some pics of the 24mm natural leather version on my 48mm Oceanaut chrono!...TY Mario! bravo.gif

Great workmanship, MarioThumbsUp02.gif.

I am curious...what is strongest and most durable among these three choices?

Ostrich leather? Calf/cow leather? Crocodile leather?

I was told ostrich is stronger than cow/calf. Not sure if what I heard is true.

Thanks in advance for the "decision".

I haven't found much of a difference in what type of skin is used as far as wear....Elephant has been pretty tough though along with Croc/Gator imo...ThumbsUp02.gif

Thanks, Oscar.

I also asked around and I've been told that all things normal....the tanning process used will determine the final durability among all "like leathers".

That Orloff/Mario ostrich is really tempting. I envy you for that exact shade, marbling, texture and sheen.drool.gif

Jeff the burgundy Ostrich is awesome and I expect the grey version to be as well....the croc with it's vintage color variations throughout the strap should look sweet imo!....they are a day away!patrick.gif

my black alligator arrived yesterday from Mario/Italy and once again I am blown away by his craftsmanship and attention to detail with every strap he makes from beginning to end....he amazes me with his communication skills throughout the entire process....I mounted it on a Dievas DLC/AGP LE for now until the watch it was intended for arrives but it is super nice imho...best part of the gator with the grain to the right and is nicely padded and lined....TY Mario! bravo.gif

Way cool, MarioThumbsup3.gif. But could you label the photos so we know what they are? I like the one on the Egiziano and the brown whipsnake (???) on the case back photo of the Radiomir.

Good work!

Good work!

if you pm Mario he will answer...just tell him which strap in order of the pics...I ordered the brown lizard which was the 4th from the top of his most recent pics...quality is Italian awesome and he can make them to your size depending on how much material he has...!

Thanks, O! I like Mario's exotics but I'm so confused from all the selections that he's been postingoh my.gif. I'll have to keep viewing them all to decide but I agree his quality looks top-rate.

By far, Mario's first strap from the Nile crocodile on his latest post seems to be the best I've seen.

Oscar....my suspicion....your incoming from Mario hits your Voyageur, right?

Jeff I really didn't buy it to go on any 1 particular watch...I'm just an exotic strap nut who can't get enough!....Marios straps also sell quickly and I missed out on his last batch of hornbacks so this time around Mario pm'd me with one he thought I would like...and I did!happy guy.gif

my hornback gator arrived from Mario this week and although I was looking to mount it on the new bronze Moray when it arrives I put it on the CRUX which it was nearly a perfect match up with the dial....again Mario's craft is awesome and his straps are a work of art imho...Mario...you rock.gif
