What makes Swift calfskin different?
Swift is a smooth calfskin with almost no visible grain and a soft satin sheen, so color does the talking. It is supple from the first wear and softens along the flex points. The trade-off: it shows a scratch that pebbled Togo calfskin watch straps would hide, and a soft cloth usually settles it. Every strap is hand-cut against a steel rule, lined with water-resistant Zermatt and edge-painted by hand.
How do you choose within this collection?
Flat straps suit slim cases; padded straps suit thicker ones (see padded vs flat watch straps). Choose 2.5, 3.5 or 4.5 mm thickness, lug widths 12–24 mm in pairs and lengths XS/S (100/60 mm) to XL (135/85 mm). For more racing holes, browse rally watch straps.

Which watches does it suit?
Flat sand, taupe or teal blue suits dress watches of 34–38 mm. Sand and taupe also flatter gold cases and two-tone watches, with a gold or rose gold buckle. Field watches look right on taupe. The rally straps belong on chronographs: white with a panda dial, black with red stitching on steel, padded red on a larger sports watch. On a diver, it is an off-duty band, not a swimming strap.
