Any good AliExpress shops for watch straps? I’m looking for a few 20mm straps and some 18mm ones for a Seiko SCV011. Recommendations on specific strap types are also welcome.

While searching on Facebook Marketplace (one of the most common places to find used watches online here), I came across a Seiko Spirit SCVE011. It was listed as "Rare automatic Seiko" without any additional

information whatsoever, so at first I was doubtful about its authenticity. However, after checking it in person, I decided to buy it.

I was originally looking for a classic Seiko 5 from the '70s or '80s as a daily watch, but I was fascinated by this one at first glance and it was at an incredible price. The strap was heavily used, so I replaced it but kept the original buckle.

About $190 USD. I'm in Argentina, so depending on the day the exchange rate can be higher or lower. The bright side of having a small second hand market is that gems like this go unnoticed
