Croc Straps very cheap.
Seller claims to have 5 of them for sale.

Perfect rating for this seller with many transactions

It may be an older style strap, I'm not an expert on the stamping on those.

The taper to 18mm on a 22mm strap, plus the lighter than usual colour of the lining would indicate the older style. That said, they are SERIOUSLY shiny. Hmmmmmm, I'd never buy it myself, but can't say for certain if it's fake.

Yep, much too shiny, Breitling logo is wrong. Reported. :guns:

He's selling other brands too - JLC, Rolex, VC, etc - no doubt questionable too...
