There are so many youtubers looking at new ways to make some quick buck, besides ad revenue. Some watch focused youtube channels seem to be profiting by selling branded mass produced Alibaba watch straps. It's legitimate bussiness, that is practiced by enormous companies. Just keep in mind that your new shine Barton strap, was bought at 2 bucks from a chinese online supplier.

This is crazy, this matter completely escaped me.
Buy these straps put them on water damaged redial pieces mark up 200% and I think Theo and Harris will make u a sales rep
I've been unaware of the strap racket. :/ Thanks for sharing.
this is so insightful man! shame too they're not even standard Fluco quality. Everyone does this unfortunately to a boring and generic degree. Bulang Son , Private Eyes , Hodinkee all Jean Paul Mennuci straps that are from the generic line up , it would be more classy if they used custom or exclusive dyes , stitchings.
Made in French, matches the headline from Alibaba, as seen bellow:
Bear in mind, they may not be exact 1:1 copies, as orders can be customized.
