I'll start by saying that the strap is nice. Now, the quality and craftsmanship was not what I'd expect from an 80 dollar strap, much less a 200 dollar strap at full price. I got the green on green, and the stitching is crooked and has very visible imperfections and ends of string. Nice strap, and I'll wear it, as the quality and texture of the lizard are amazing, but as far as all the hand-made details go, I'm pretty disappointed. Tldr, do some research and buy something from etsy that's exactly what you want.

I_am_ron_burgundyDeBeer and Fluco both make some lizard straps, only like $20-$30. I don't own any so I can't speak for their quality but I know they aren't genuine lizard. If the pattern is what you're going for, check them out.

I_am_ron_burgundyI now own a DeBeer lizard grain strap so I can give my thoughts on it.
It's pretty glossy, pretty flexible, and fits the watch well. Stitching is clean and consistent, retaining strips of leather are also lizard grain. The strap is embossed so it's not perfectly textured and can look flat at times, but it does look interesting and different.
The color I ordered was black, so ones that are blue might look better/worse with color changes, but my black leather is an even tone of glossy black like well shined shoes.
Wears really comfortably and shaped to my wrist after ~30 seconds of wear. I would say it's worth the $20, even if you just need a basic replacement strap - it wont let you down and it doesn't feel like a cheap beater strap.
