Hi,

Opinion please.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Gents-Black-C ... 19d7ed8c83

Seems that the strap code number, 744P which is the correct number I think, is on the wrong section of strap. Unless it has changed recently?

Thanks.

I am guessing there are numerous markings on these in terms of how it looks and is ordered. This is how I thought it was supposed to be...

To me the liner itself looks a little different. Again, not sure if that is anything to worry about but just noting so others can concentrate on it.

There are different versions, but there are also very good fakes of the straps - personally I have no idea on this one. Don't recognise the markings on the tail of the short end, and stitching looks a long way from the edge, but couldn't call it.

Also don't recognize "VUAP B7" markings, but the rest looks ok to me.
