    Have a Seiko SKX013 on rubber on the way to me. It's a 20mm with curved ends. Strapcode want nearly 100 roughly with post etc. Any other brands i could search for?

    Thanks Roy

    I got a Seiko Monster bracelet from Rob at Monster Watches in Holland for €50 last year. Great guy to deal with!

    Could I piggyback on this thread and ask for a recommendation for a strap on a budget?

    Looking for a soft tan leather, 20mm.

    Don't want to be spending massive money on it. Maybe keep it under the €40 mark?

    Ended up cancelling this as it was going to cost nearly 400 euro by the time I sourced a good bracelet.ended up buying a Seiko monster instead. Many thanks for the replies

    I wanted a tan leather strap in a rush last year and bought a Hirsch from a local jewellers. Did the job, decent quality. Think it cost around €30 give or take.

    I already have a Hirsch strap delivered to my NI address, just haven't picked it up yet.

    I did see some of the WG ones online when I was searching.

    For what its worth, I thing the strapcode is worth the money, it give the watch the feel of one 5 times the price, its a quality item.

    Thanks eljono,

    Finally got to collect my strap today.

    It was a Hirsch Forest, and looks great.
    A bargain for £19 delivered.

    I've a strapcode jubilee for my SKX013 and its a very comfortable and well-made bracelet. I got mine for £60GBP so well worth the money. €100 for the quality is not way out there.
