leather strap recommendation

i sent my oyster bracelet off for a restoration. so i am currently wearing my tudor day-date on a cheap strap i bought somewhere. the bracelet isn't coming back for at least 3 months, so i should invest in nicer straps to go with the tudor. any recommendation? many thanks!

What I have found over the many years some straps are very high priced, but in reality of no better quality than the ones from manufactures like Hirsch

If you want something a bit dressy, it's hard to beat crocodile in black or medium brown. Add the white stitching to make it a bit sportier. I say croc because it tends to be half the price of alligator.

Lots of folks make nice ones, and you probalby want something 3.5mm to 4.5mm for your watch.
