    Strap flipping

    in Dishonest Dealings

    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.

    teddybaldassarre strap description

    Made in French, matches the headline from Alibaba, as seen bellow:


    Wholesale 18mm 19mm 20mm 21mm 22mm Handmade Wrist Quick Release French Strap

    Bear in mind, they may not be exact 1:1 copies, as orders can be customized.

    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.
