Strap hardware

Hello, looking for a good place to source hardware for custom watch straps. Making my own straps and wondering if anyone has any recommendations. Cheers.

I like to use vintage buckles and hardware. however I source most of my hardware from buckleguy.com I get all my brass hardware from them. As it's high quality solid brass! and not crap like Tandy leather sells. @Jericho is an amazing leathersmith as well. maybe he'll chime in with a recommendation

I'm based in Europe, so maybe different for you. In my case I order most of my buckles from Germany at uhrenbandverband. If you're looking for OEM Omega style clasps most probably everyone is selling AliExpress ones, which are actually great! If not you can go on branded clasps but can be expensive, like Hirsch or Formex. Springbars are easy to find also on Amazon, but lately I've been using bars from Masar in France, as they have a wide variety of quick releases
