OEM Assolutamente Strap?
Hello all, I am in search of your professional opinion on whether or not the photos of these Assolutamente straps are OEM or replica. From what research i have gathered, I have my reservations about them however would like to make sure if I make the right decision that they are OEM. Thanks in advance of your help.

i know there's some variation in color and thickness from asso strap to strap, and it might just be a question of the lighting, but, those don't look like asso straps i've seen before.
re: the back, can't say i've seen asso backs, sorry.

Worst thing about it is that he sold so many over the months and none of them realize that it was a fake... |

i was referring to how deep the stamp is on the back. check the back of any OEM strap, the stamp doesn't look like that. the one in the middle is the worst.

Not real... stamping is too deep and stitching is too thick. Without giving some other tells away these are all wrong.

I believe the boutiques sell them for around 275. Might as well save your self the headache and get it from a reputable source. I've seen some fake ones floating around paneristi as well

If the savings on the straps your are showing is significant over the OEM straps and they look good, wear them!!!!!!.....when they wear out, get an OEM strap......no biggie!!!!
