All you leather experts out there....
I have my Zenith El Primero on a brown leather strap, fitted to a period Zenith deployant. It's 19mm lug width, tapering down to 16mm at the deployant. At the moment the strap is a cheap Accurist one which was £10 from eBay - this was to see whether I liked the look and I do, but now the coating is peeling off as can be seen, so it's starting to look cheap.
Hirsch seems like the obvious choice, but I'm not sure of the difference between the various types of leather.
Lizard might be interesting but I have no idea how this will wear/look,

Then there's shiny crocodile which I suppose is the most similar looking to what I have already,

And alligator, although I don't understand the difference with crocodile,

Would be interested in your thoughts and recommendations...
