It is cut from the fine-scale claw section at the bottom of the leg: the scales here are small, tight and even, closer to a fine pebble than to the broad tiles higher up. A cool slate blue-grey that shifts a little with the light, finished with white saddle stitching down both edges. Built up through the middle for a fuller presence, then tapered towards the buckle. Cut, edged and saddle-stitched by hand as a single piece of work. Because the pattern belongs to the hide rather than to us, no two straps are identical — the product photos show the exact piece you are buying.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA soft Zermatt lining sits against the wrist, and the edge paint is hand-finished to match the leather. Every strap is made in the size, buckle and finishing you specify, and nothing is cut until those are set. Free engraving of up to 12 characters on the lining is available.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGenuine ostrich leg leather, nubuck finish, fine-scale claw section\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColour\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlue Grey\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProfile\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePadded\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStitching\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWhite as pictured — your choice of colour on request\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLug width\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12–24 mm, in pairs — custom sizes made to measure\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3.5, 4.5, 5.0 or 5.5 mm at the lug end\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e105\/65 – 135\/105 mm, or your own measurement\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLining\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eZermatt\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEdge\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHand-finished to match the leather\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMade in\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHa Noi, Vietnam\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNubuck — soft, velvety matte, no gloss\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAbout nubuck ostrich leg leather\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOstrich leg is the other half of the bird and looks nothing like the crown: instead of round follicles it carries hard, graduated scales that run from fine at the ankle to broad at the knee, closer to a reptile than to a bird. It is tougher than crown ostrich and holds a sharper edge. The scale run is unique to each leg, so the pattern on your strap belongs to that piece alone — refer to the product photos. In nubuck, the grain side is gently sanded to a fine nap, so the scales keep their relief but read matte and suede-like rather than glossy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThe hide behind your strap\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1024\/8480\/3953\/files\/padded-blue-grey-nubuck-fine-scale-ostrich-leg-watch-strap-da-that.webp\" alt=\"Real blue grey nubuck ostrich leg hide used for this strap\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1067\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"width:100%;height:auto;aspect-ratio:3\/2;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery strap is cut from this actual hide — photographed in natural light, unretouched.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch4\u003eWhich lug width and length should I order?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eMeasure the gap between your watch lugs in millimetres; that is your lug width.

Brush it lightly along the scale pattern with a soft nubuck brush to lift the surface, and avoid oils, creams and polish, which darken nubuck.
