Cream saddle stitching in the classic straight pattern is the only contrast, and it is enough to keep the strap from reading as plain black at a glance. Fitted with a Pre-V buckle, the tapered mid-century pin frame, which suits the serious colour. Padded build.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLined with Zermatt, a soft French calf lining that stays comfortable in heat and does not transfer colour onto the skin. Edges are bevelled, burnished and sealed by hand in three passes. Every strap is made to order: send us your lug width, the length of each half and the buckle finish, and we cut it to your wrist. Free engraving of up to 12 characters on the lining — a name, initials or a date.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLeather\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFull-grain cowhide\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDark brown\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStrap form\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePadded\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStitch\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCream, classic hand saddle stitch\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEdge\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHand painted and burnished\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLining\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eZermatt calf\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBuckle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePre-V buckle, steel, engraving available\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMade for\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVintage and everyday watches, 12–24 mm lugs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCare\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWipe with a dry cloth; the colour deepens with wear\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLead time\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3–5 days to make, then shipping\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout Cowhide\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFull-grain cowhide keeps the outermost layer of the hide, the part with the tightest fibre structure, so nothing has been buffed away to hide flaws. That makes it the most hard-wearing leather on this site and the one that ages best — it darkens, softens and picks up a natural shine where it rubs. Expect it to feel firm for the first week and then settle to the shape of your wrist.\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. We make this full-grain cowhide strap in pairs from 12 to 24 mm (for example 20\/18 or 22\/20 mm) and in lengths from 105\/65 to 135\/105 mm for wrists of roughly 14 to 22.5 cm. Custom sizes are made to measure.

Wipe it with a soft, dry cloth, avoid swimming or soaking it, and if it gets wet, blot it and let it air-dry away from direct heat. A little neutral leather conditioner a few times a year keeps it supple.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eHow long does delivery to the US take?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery strap is cut and stitched to order in our Ha Noi workshop in 3–5 business days, then ships to the US for a flat $5.99 with 10–12 days in transit.
