Considering joining this drop. Can anyone comment on the quality of the Da Luca pieces relative to ColaReb or Fluco brands? Thanks in advance for you comments.

Radi0head I joined another da luca drop a few while back. The cutting is bad, the stitching is worst, totally disappointed with the craftsmanship, or lack thereof, of the product. Not worth the money spend.

Radi0headWe had a few issues a while back and made some major changes for Massdrop. Since then we have had little to no issues. As always we back any of our work and will address/take care of any issues that arise. We hope this gives you peace of mind with this very first drop of its kind on MD. These are made from a single 8-10oz piece of Horween Chromexcel Leather (black or brown) or Wickett and Craig (natural horse harness leather) with minimal matching top stitching. They are made to last a very long time and are made this minimal on purpose. With a bottle of Venetian cream you should be good to go.

Radi0headWait for a drop from Vulture Premium, whose stuff is heads and tails above this. Search for their past drops in the search box at the upper right. Disctrict Leather is also okay. If you're in a hurry, search for Martu Straps on Google. She's in Chile where the cost of living is low, and her normal prices are Massdrop level.

DA-LUCAI can concur, I purchased a Navy two piece, Green one piece, and Black military one piece in later drops. Quality of leather is top notch and better than OEM leather I have on time pieces from high end brands such as GP and Tudor. The leather is supper soft and supple and feels great even on the hottest of days. The top stitching while not perfect looks like hand stitching and adds to the luxury feel of the strap. I love all 3 of mine and plan to purchase more as I like to switch up straps for different seasons and events.

Radi0headI purchased 2 two-piece Chromexel straps at 18mm and 22mm in another drop and both came in defective. The thickness was incredible thin and stretched immensely after a day of wear. The other one had stitching missing, only glued. Both were cut to incorrect widths and had nearly 2mm of spring bar visible. Customer service was excellent and both were replaced with a more satisfactory product but they are still lacking in refinement. Sticthing is quite crude and crooked. They are definitely not made for a dress watch, but look decent on a field watch. Before receiving delivery on first order I foolishly joined a drop for one of their 1-piece straps. However, that one is wonderful. Rich color, perfect width and length. Hard to gauge my feelings here because although they were initially a huge disappointment they have been replaced without any pushback from Da Luca and the 1-piece strap is very nice.

Gabriel_MThe Da-Luca Horween NATOs are fine. But these I wouldn't buy.

mcamposWe need more reviews on this product (if you have purchased this one before) otherwise Drop will not let us re-run them as the single reviewer (see the "Reviews" tab above) is all people have to go off, which we feel does not properly represent our product and straps. If you are able to add a review to this poduct it would greatly be appreciated. Thank you.

Gabriel_MWe could greatly use a review on this product (if you decide to purchase or have purchased one). As it stands, 2 stars for the only review brings this drop too low for Drop to re-run. Thank you for the kind words and we thank you in advance.

DA-LUCAI didn't purchase this product, but I gave you a two stars review on the one-piece chromexel strap. To be fair your customer service is great but I don't need the extra cost and hassle of sending my strap halfway around the world for a product I shouldn't send back in the first place. So as it stands, I'm fine with not having a re-run of this drop.
