Here is a very unusual strap that we recently completed for Niki Muellerschoen&#8217;s vintage Rolex collection. It&#8217;s make from African Warthog skin, which as an exotic leather that is essentially not available, but I was provided a small piece by my good customer and friend David Boyle ( I had made a strap for David from a piece of the Cape <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: normal; font-style: normal;\"><span style=\"font-size: 100%;\">Buffalo he provided me and you can read about part of his amazing Africa hunting safari <\/span><\/span><a style=\"font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 100%; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;\" href=\"http:\/\/dangerous9straps.blogspot.de\/2011\/09\/davids-big-game-custom-cape-buffalo.html\">Here<\/a><span style=\"font-weight: normal; font-style: normal;\"><span style=\"font-size: 100%;\">).
