About epsom calfskin
The rally strap was made for drivers: the holes cut weight and let air to the wrist through a long stint behind the wheel, and the pattern became the look of motorsport in the sixties. Cut here from Epsom calfskin, whose tight embossed grain keeps its shape and resists the scratches a racing strap collects.
Shipping & delivery
Every strap is made to order and leaves our Ha Noi workshop in 5–7 days.
Shipping is a flat rate per order, tracked. $10 to the United States; every other country is calculated at checkout.
Delivery usually takes a further 5–10 working days depending on where you are. Customs duties, where they apply, are not included.
Return & refund
Returns or exchanges within 30 days of delivery, or at any point a defect appears.
Straps carrying an engraving are cut and stamped for one person, so they can only be returned if they arrive faulty.

Sits low and close to the wrist. Quiet, clean, and easy under a shirt cuff — the profile that suits dress and everyday watches.
Lug-end thickness: 2.5, 3.5 or 4.5 mm — or ask for your own.
Built up through the middle for a fuller, sportier presence, then tapered down towards the buckle so it still sits comfortably.
Lug-end thickness: 3.5, 4.5, 5.0 or 5.5 mm — or ask for your own.
Thickness is measured at the lug end, where the strap meets your watch. From there we taper it down so it finishes cleanly against your buckle.
The leather
Epsom Calfskin

Cut here from Epsom calfskin, whose tight embossed grain keeps its shape and resists the scratches a racing strap collects.
Built for daily wear
Watch Strap Structure
Every strap is built around the three details that decide how it lives on your wrist — not the ones that photograph well.
-
01
Quick release spring bars
Choose quick release or regular spring bars. We fit them before it ships, so you can change straps in seconds — no tools, no scratched lugs.
-
02
Soft Zermatt lining
The underside is lined with soft, water-resistant Zermatt — comfortable against the skin all day, and in warm weather.
-
03
Your name on the lining
Initials or a name, hand-stamped into the lining free of charge, so the piece on your wrist is one of one.
How it is made
The XILUGS Crafting Process
18 handmade steps behind every XILUGS watch strap.
-
01
Cutting the Leather
Cut by hand from a full hide against a steel rule — never die-pressed in batches.
02
Skiving
The edges are pared thinner so the strap folds without a ridge under your wrist.
03
Reinforcement
A reinforcement layer is set in where the strap takes the most stress.
04
Hammering
The layers are hammered flat so they sit true before they are bonded.
05
Assembly
Outer leather and Zermatt lining are laid up together and aligned by hand.
06
Rolling
The layers are rolled under pressure to bond them into one piece.
07
Shaping
The strap is cut to its final profile and the tip is shaped.
08
Edge Sanding
The raw edge is sanded through descending grits until the layers read as one.
09
Punching the Stitch Holes
Holes are struck with a pricking iron at a constant angle — what gives a hand seam its slant.
10
Saddle Stitching
By hand: two needles, one waxed thread, every hole passed twice. It cannot be done by machine.
11
Edge Creasing
A heated creaser draws a fine line along the edge, framing the stitch.
12
Edge Painting
The burnished edge is sealed and hand-painted in thin coats to match the leather.
13
Keepers
The keeper loops that hold the tail are made and fitted by hand.
14
Buckle Holes
The pin holes are punched to the exact length you ordered, not a standard pattern.
15
Fitting the Buckle
The buckle is fitted in the finish you chose.
16
Spring Bars
Quick-release spring bars are fitted so the strap goes on your watch without tools.
17
Quality Control
Every strap is checked against your order and against itself before it leaves.
18
The Finished Strap
Boxed and shipped worldwide with tracking, ready to leave the workshop in 5–7 days.
