Leather watch straps under $60?
The watch strap makes the watch for me, and I love to upgrade my Orients, Seikos, Sugess etc with a better strap. Does anyone have recommendations for watch straps with quality materials, beautiful details, but under £50/$60?
Leather, rubber and steel, all options for me.

You might check out Strap Atelier. Anywhere from $35 to $80 and there always discount codes around.
Excellent leather choices and finishes, nice flourishes and agreeable enough pricing.

It is certainly not the cheapest but value for quality wise I've not found better (yet).

I've probably bought 10 leather straps there and not one has ended up being junk.
You're going to hear a lot of people say the old, "You get what you pay for" but there are some nice surprises out there, particularly if you are exploring styles and don't want to invest a lot up front while you find out what you like.
http://cnswatchbands.com is a great place to grab a bunch of stuff for cheap and then maybe upgrade once you find a look you like, but even Ali Express has some finds. I just got a Sugess that came with a surprisingly quality leather rally strap. Good luck!
Even some micro brands have decent to great straps ie Vario, Detomaso etc. They also have 50% off sales.
Good example I have used Detomaso full grain leather straps Italian made hand crafted. 50.00 normally, with the sale 25.00. Only thing is their straps are only 22mm. So I bounce around brands for comps and sizes.
Cheers!
I added a brown suede strap from Benchmark on my Orient. Love it!
