I know there are so many talented strap makers in this forum, but yet i am having difficulty identifying someone who can make pilot style straps with rivets for my athaya pilot builds.
Can anyone recommend a strap maker here who can make straps in the pilot style?

Not a strap maker, but you get original straps from Laco themselves. They sell them on their homepage.

I have about 4 pilot watches that needed a strap. 2 are athaya pilots and another 2 longines czech air force vintages.
I ordered 1 laco strap to try, but want to try something different.
The longines czech air force has fixed lugs so i definitely need a rivet strap i can screw and unscrew...

I got him to make one just like the one you show me and its on the way to me now.
Glad my B-Uhr will have a proper strap to go on and i look forward to adding it to my regular rotation...
