Vincent.HDo you mind explaining why the crocodile strap cannot be exported? I was under the impression that crocodile leather was farmed just like alligators are here in the US. If there were some sort of poaching issues within the supply chain, why not simply use American alligator?
SkipPeThe crocodile on this watch is, as far as I know, farmed.
This is more an issue with shipping exotic materials being fairly new to us and having to figure out all the kinks involved with customs.
The watch can only be shipped to the US, unfortunately, due to the crocodile leather strap. Follow the below links to learn a bit more about the watch! http://www.mauricelacroix.com/Watch/Entry/Collection/masterpiece-3/Id/masterpiece_retrograde_moon-105.sls
