I have requested a band from UN and am waiting a response. Only OEM straps I find on Ebay are few and far between, cost >$800 and include the titanium hardware pieces which I have. Just wondered if there was anywhere I overlooked.

I have requested a band from them but have not yet had a reply. I thought I'd see if there were alternatives while I wait.

$400 is a bit high for three pieces of rubber!
I only got two bits for my money

The UN bands look pretty tough, but I'm fairly inexperienced. Thanks for the tips on the other sources. I spoke with Burdeens Jewelry (Chicago) and they are checking if they can order a UN one for me... the guy I spoke to thought it would be around $350. ...
I have one ordered

Burdeen's has ordered one for me. About $380 with taxes. I think the timepiece deserves a blue band!

Thank you for the compliment ! I spoke to UN and they sent me a link to fill out, but it turns out to be a request for a customer care package, apparently to send in my band to replace the rubber parts. Now I am understanding why there are few and very ex...

that the UN straps hold up so well.! If I am able to get a UN blue strap for $350, I am going to do it.
Need some expert advice

...I got a little over-excited changing straps and turned my screw a little too hard and broke it (I forgot it was not steel - rose gold, and for a UN Maxi Marine Chronometer as well). I had to send it to UN and they sorted it out. Price-wise, it was not ...
