I ordered La Perla Azzura Alaska (dark brown) , Japanese cowhide (black) and Horween chromexcel (blue) leather straps. All our excellent quality. My favorite so far is is the Japanese cowhide because of its versatility on dress and sports watches. I've yet to 'break in' the Alaska strap to get the patina and sheen but it looks good on vintage watch specially with aged dial. The blue Horween looks good with white, silver and even cream as the stitching is off white. My only gripe is how I wish the straps come in short sizes as I have small wrist. Shipping from Japan is fast, even faster than our local post office.
