the website is misleading, at the time of the order, wasn't mention that the product is out of stock and that the delivery may take more than 30 days.I ordered on December 9., and was promised by Damien several times, that the ordered item will be received until latest December 24., but only arrived on December 31.I'm very disappointed regarding your services, and would never recommend to anyone to deal you ABP Concept

Strap arrived after 3 weeks shipping (not 1 day), and it was the wrong size - I can't use it. Abp just ducked their responsibility, did not give any help whatsoever

I ordered a Limited edition squared scales Alligator strap this time.But I never imagined that photograph and real strap would be so different. This is actually a fraud!! I was very disappointed and I could hardly use this strap.

Straps were of really nice quality, however I ordered the oysterglide type clasp, and it was horrible. In fact, it seemed to be the exact crappy chinese one that I also bought on eBay for $15. Only problem is ABP sells them for $40. For a boutique luxury watch accessory shop, they should be providing higher quality after market clasps, or at least price them inline what everyone else charges for them. Mentioned this to customer service and no one responded to me, even after spending hundreds of dollars in the store.

I sent you a mail asking why the thickness was so small and you told me that the NATO strap has to be thin, I understood your explanation but I have to say that since the Big Pilot IWC is quite heavy, after a few day of use I see that the fixing hole is deforming. I am not an expert like you but I think that the strap for a watch like this should be more robust. I think it will be heavily damaged soon, and it's a pity for an expensive strap like this. I think you should use different thickness on different parts of the strap.

The service is perfect as well as the quality of the products delivered. The only problem I suffered is that the brillancy/shade of the strap colors seen freom the computer are very different from the real ones.I ordered a brillian sky blue strap and I received a dull pale blue instead. Not what I expected .

Bracelet announced in stock on the website but in fact not, up to 3-4 extra weeks needed to manufacture the missing parts. Fortunately this was limited to about 1 week in my case, but this should be communicated before ordering to be perfect.

The order was delayed with more than a week. Once recieved, i found out that ABP delivered the wrong strap. I have paid EUR 345 for a strap that i did not order. In addition i have not recieved and invoice. What i have recieved is a bill stating that i have recieved a sample strap worth EUR 20. I find this business practise to be irregular. I have written several times to enure that ABP make up for the wrong order. Still no resolvement after 45 days...

Ordered two straps from the classic collection, which looks to be good quality but the color is a little too far from what was shown on the site. Both the calf leather and the alligator are much more uniform in color and they look almost like plastic.

I bought a light brown NATO alligator strap... 90 + 7 shipping, I understand the price according to a Living Heritage Company, however please explain the following:- Although the leather varies according to the animal and the place taken the bracelet looks nothing like the photo ... which must be the best ...- I'm having trouble grasping the light brown color, it's chocolate brown...- I can't see the shiny side of the leather or the contrast between the scales, it's dull and a very solid color.I'm not a picky person to be polite... but I've been wanting this for so long... after 16 days of waiting... now I'm relatively disappointed.

18 days since the order was placed. It was not a custom made strap. I have written to customer service 2x for an update and have not gotten an update. I am ready to contact the CC card company for a refund.

I received the wrong strap and was notified by ABP that I could send it back (at my expense) and they would redo the order. Instead, I asked for an exchange or a refund and after several emails and a month and a half later I have yet to get a single response from ABP. They now have the original strap back and I am just waiting on a response. Interestingly, prior to placing my order, they were very responsive.

Dear Mr Taylor,We are sorry that your experience with our company left you with a bad memory. We apologize if it took a bit a time. We hope you will trust us another time and we will be glad to offer you a discount. Have a great day,ABP Team

I had given ABP my wrist size in (mm) and I was uncertain between L or XL...my wrist size which was measured many times to make sure and is just under 8mm so I chose L, because of the variance in mm for sizes. When my blue denim alligator/croc? leather band came in for my Rolex datejust ll 41mm, the band was beautiful and high quality, but it was way to short. Had the band installed by my local jeweler on the watch, and had it extended as far as allowed, and it is so tight....I am hoping that it will give a little through wear.My recommendation when ordering from them is to just dictate your wrist size and leave it at that, and have them make the decision; my wrist size was in between L and XL, but now I know and it was costly.

Strap came with no holes (they were added at the moment of purchase). Poor quality of stitching, uneven. Color specified was dark brown. Real color is like a taupe. Send an email with my claims uppon reception and never received a reply. The quality does not reflect de price above 200 euros. Straps for less than a quarter the price do the job and don't have uneven stitching.

Dear Sir,I'm sorry your complaint was left unanswered . Indeed there is a problem with your strap, you will be contacted by our team.Best Regards,ABP Team

I bought a strap for my Rolex Air King but the fit to the height of the lugs was terrible despite being listed for that model. ABP admitted the issue so I returned for a refund but didn't include the original postage despite the product issue being theirs. Ended up £20 or so out of pocket from the experience and hence I won't use them again unfortunately.

Crappy customer service. I specifically asked for quick release bar cut on the straps ( i even gave them the ref of the watch), they confirmed it but when it came it didnt have any cut. I wrote 2 emails about the problem, 0 answer until now( which is kinda frustrating this beeing my third order of a custom strap from abp). Im sorry to say that this was my last order.

My only gripe is requiring a signature for delivery by the USPS. inevitably I'm not home at delivery and then must go to the post office where they have trouble locating your package.

i purchased 2 straps in November one was stock the other needed to be made. I received the straps and found that the one that was made was the wrong color. I contacted ABP and was told a replacement would be made and sent ASAP. I followed up on:1/2/191/9/192/11/192/26/19and 3/6/19In their response to my email dated 1/9/19 I was told the strap was being made and they will have it completed by the end of that week and sent out.as of 3/7/19 I still have not received the strap.So I have no strap, no explanation as of the status . In fact they stopped corresponding with me after the 1/9/19 email.this company came highly recommended to me but has been a major disappointment and I will tell the gentleman that gave me their recommendation (he works for a very high end jewelry store in the U.S.) that their service is horrendous and I will never purchase anything from them again and will advise others to do the same.

Ordered a watch strap with express delivery. Was told it had been shipped. Strap never arrived. Emailed several times and finally received a reply stating that I would be refunded express delivery and they would reship. Emailed countless times and tried calling. No reply. No strap. The order was placed over 3 months ago now!! If you must use these people ensure you pay by credit card so you stand half a chance of getting your money back if (when) they screw up and refuse to return any correspondence.

Hello,Unfortunately I bought my bracelets during a period with a promotional code, but not being aware of it, I paid the full price.When I asked for the discount to be granted, I didn't even get an answer.On the other hand, the products are of very good quality.

Answer time on e-mails is a little bit long sometimes. Asked for a picture of the complete hide- the configuration picture wasn't meaningful enough. Received some pictures of a great hide and ordered on this base- in the end I got a strap which was definitely different colour- nice too- but not what I ordered. I wrote a email to ask if they took the wrong hide- the answer was, that the colour on this specification changed some months ago!? So why did I get pictures of a hide/colour that wasn't nearly the same for months???

I ordered three classic alligator straps--one brown and two black. One of the black straps has a noticeably more glossy finish, and a different buckle (i.e. different buckle design that the other two straps, and different than shown on the ABP website).

I received a watch band that is too large. I have tried to contact Abp Concept 5 times via email and their Contact Us page on their site with no response. I have no idea how to get a response from ABP Concept to correct the situation. I have received an email, I am exchanging the product.

I have not received my watch strap, the package has been shipped back to France and my funds have not been returned. I'll be calling my credit card company on Monday to let them know that this charge must be reversed as ABP did not deliver the product I had paid for.

In the past I placed my orders in Paris - offline. Still today I am very happy with the "bespoke" leather straps. This time I tried your online shop with just some simple "perlon" straps, to give it a try, as I can´t travel to Paris so often. One strap is very nice, but the other one doesn´t match the size I asked for. It should have been 22mm but even on my biggest watch (23mm between horns) it doesn´t fit. Because of the (almost prohibitive if you consider it was inside Europe and just a small and light envelope) € 15,- shipping fee I already paid, me didn´t ask for any replacement … Will I try it again? Probably not if I find something more convenient

I read 100s of reviews of many strap brands before proceeding with ABP for my Panerai. I received the strap and found 2 tears in the leather. I was so disappointed. I contacted the website via its email which was supplied with the invoice. I received no response for a number of days (interesting how when I first contacted them about the purchase, they responded overnight but when it comes to complaints, silence). I then called their store in France at my expense to find out what was going on. I managed to speak to someone who had limited English who said someone would call me back. Overnight, a response came saying "the tearings don't look really bad". I was shocked - there shouldn't be any in the first place!!!! I was asked to return the strap "if I want" and they would give me another. I was so upset. In addition, the strap was so thin and seemed quite poor quality. I asked for a refund in the letter I sent back with the strap - that was my preference. If they couldn't do this, I would accept a replacement but I said to them I view their products as poorly made and cheap. They didn't refund me but instead sent another strap. This is such a different outcome to what I expected after all the glowing reviews. I won't be buying from them again.
