That's what I'd do. Consider also sending it to Jerry Burney for repairs and facelift. I'd rather have a few extra stitch holes showing than a strap that's an obvious aberration. It will never be original again, but with some repair, it will be returned to original configuration. It looks in fairly good shape otherwise!
