Only 2 comments. 1 Alligator/crocodile are, in my experience, the most durable leathers. 2 In hot weather, I wear a steel bracelet anyway.
watch strap material
I see increasingly using the cowhide strap, from brand to brand, Is this some fashion? wondering if the alligator strap is not widely accepted anymore
Which brands?
Almost all of the independents I know are prolific users of alligator or other "exotic" leathers...
Fear not!
I believe that alligator is on its way back into style, even *glossy* alligator.
I don't know about fashion but to my eyes . . .
. . . grained calfskin is preferable over other leathers including large scale gator. The texture of grained calfskin is pleasing to my eye. M4
International shipping of gator and croc is a problem.
I’ve had two nice Czapek straps confiscated this year because of CITES paperwork snafus.
