I emailed seller and he responded he bought from an AD--Riiiight. In addition, he sent me a pic of the "other side" and it clearly said CUIR. Posts below-

Seller:

I am not an expert, but I wonder if a dealer could sell knockoffs to "boost" profits. It happened to me once on a pair of sunglasses.


The dealer sells Breitlings, and it would seem to me to be a dangerous thing to engage in though.

Thanks-thats not a croco strap. CUIR indicates leather. But, since it has the "croco" pattern I suspect it is a chinese knock off. Be careful-I would remove your listing if I were you
