Real Alligator Strap versus Replica Print
Can you tell real alligator from replica? In this video I swap out the stainless steel band for an alligator strap.
The watch in the video is a Tag Hauer Carrera WV211B

so i bought my first crocodile belt in mx but im nor sure if its real
The edges are always the giveaway. If the 'grain' goes round the edge, it's a wrapped print.

good tip.
I'm about to buy a black crocodile so am watching a load of review videos. I thought the top one was genuine in the first video!

The camera can only pick up so much detail. Seeing them with your own eyes makes it easier to tell.
Thanks this was helpful

Alligator hides are used for all kind of stuff: belts, shoes, wallets, etc. You can also get fried alligator in some restaurants. There’s an industry around it, just like with cows.

At those prices it's certainly worth a punt!

@@Schizophrenic0 I bought one of these for my Seiko SSA379. I suspect its probably caiman given the price, and its sourced from the leg instead of the belly. But hey for $20 I'm not complaining.
