And here is my first Torre strap (thanks again Jenneke for posting about him here):

It's wasn't easy to find any 23mm open-ended strap the first time I had to get one for this watch and finding one with the fully stitched lug ends was never going to happen.  Notice the incised line around the edges.  It's a perfect match to what's shown in plate 23B the 1918 book.
