New Lotus Type 1 Watch Strap

Postby theelanman » Tue 19.08.2014, 07:54

right chaps....
after a good old search for the straps and having no joy, as they seem to have stopped making them, I have finally found a watch maker who will make us straps.....
they will be a replica of the original but in leather......
the bad news is that they will be about £45 each.....as each one is hand made......

who would be interested?.....

(and as we all like a good list....)

It'd need a pinch making.....with the approval of Lotus......
Think it might take too long and cost even more

OK we have a manufacturer..........

www.steveostraps.com

He is knocking them out about £35 each in leather......and you can pick your colours for leather and stitching.

Hope you all get sorted......let me know

Cheers

Thanks!

But to be very honest... I find the strap drawing a little more attention than the watch for my personal taste.
Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder :D

Kind regards and happy holidays.
