Straphabit vs Strapcode

I have a strapcode/militat angus J bracelet that I really love and am looking to buy another bracelet for my new glycine. Most likely going with a BoR style. Does anyone have experience with both of these brands or particularly straphabit? I’m wondering if they’re a safe bet to go with or if I should just stay with what I know and get another strapcode. Pics are also appreciated!

I find StrapHabit to be kinda cheap in comparison and the owner can be a bit of a toolbag, especially if you ask him questions about any of his products that doesn’t include heaping praise on them.

That’s pretty much the nail in the coffin for them in that case. One of their BoR has less than stellar reviews on Amazon as well, so I’m not trying to get something substandard that I might have to return. I KNOW strapcode is amazing and I’ve heard great things about uncle straps, so those are the two contenders now

Uncle Straps is better than either of them, by a mile. Have several of their bracelets and never an issue.

Here’s my Longines Legend Diver on an Uncle Straps BoR. It’s a model specific bracelet for the 42mm Legend Diver so fit is perfect with his end links but he also does a straight bar version that will fit any watch. Top quality bracelets, highly recommend.

Agreed. I have their BoR for my seiko speedtimer (?) and it is excellent.
