Signature: Stitched, padded and lined. Our signature straps are the full package. See the Signature Shell Cordovan straps as an example.
Slim: Stitched, non-padded and lined. Only difference from the Signature is the lack of padding, which keeps the strap thickness the same throughout.
Side-Stitch: Stitched on the outer edge at the lugs and watch buckle, non-padded, lined (for Alligator). Keeps the watch looking casual.
Single Pass: One continuous piece of leather that runs behind the watch. Only stitched on the outer edge buckle, non-padded and lined (for Alligator). Easy-on, easy-off type of strap.

Alligator: A crowd favourite. A gator watch strap immediately classes up any watch. Perfectly suited for a Signature strap. Feeling a little bolder? Go with a side-stitch gator!

There are a total of 4 layers of various material that goes into each strap, with each layer serving a specific purpose. From top to bottom, they are: (1) exterior leather, (2) padding, (3) synthetic strengthener, (4) lining leather.
All layers are firstly glued and pressed together, before they are stitched. Finally, the edges are finished with edge paint, which adds an additional layer along the exposed edges of leather and protects it from wear and tear, and water damage, over time. This also prevents the different layers from separating - an additional layer of prevention on top of the stitching.

Epsom: If you want a strap that has a beautiful texture, good scratch and water resistance, and remains looking pristine even after many wear, Epsom is the right choice.

There are up to total of 3 layers of various material that goes into each strap, with each layer serving a specific purpose. From top to bottom, they are: (1) exterior leather, (2) synthetic strengthener, (3) lining leather.

Lug Width: Find out the lug width of your watch mode. You can do this by searching the following "(watch model) lug width" in Google. Once you know the lug width (for e.g. 20mm), select the 20/18 variant for the lug width. 20 refers to the lug width, while 18 refers to the buckle width. Our straps come with a taper because it looks classier than straight straps.
Size: Not sure what size (length) to get for the straps? There are two methods to determine this.
Method 1: If you have an existing strap on your watch, measure the long and short straps, sum up the lengths, and choose the variant (Small or Medium) that is the closest to the total length of your existing straps. For example, if your existing straps measure 105mm on the long strap and 80mm on the short strap, the total length is 185mm. The closest variant would be Medium (115mm/70mm = 185mm). Note that this is still an approximation, and you should adjust accordingly if your current strap does not fit your wrist perfectly.
Method 2: If your existing watch does not have a normal strap (you have a bracelet on), you would need to measure your wrist size and purchase the strap size according to the guidelines below. If you are between sizes (for e.g. wrist size of 17.5cm), we recommend to size up.
Small: 14.9cm - 18.4cm
Medium: 16.3cm - 20.5cm
Waxed Camouflage Signature Watch Strap
$70.00
-
Our signature watch strap in Waxed Camouflage is the third item in our Signature line. Each strap is padded, lined and handstitched, using a veg-tanned leather that has a look unlike any others. Being veg-tanned means that the strap is stiff to begin with, but within a few days of wear it will mould to the shape of the wearer's wrist. While all of the straps are identical (apart from the camo design) to begin with, over the weeks, months and years of wear, the strap will quickly patina and become unique to the owner. The wax layer sitting at the top of the leather will wear down to reveal the beautiful camouflage pattern beneath. More wear, more patina, more sentimental value.
All watch straps will come with a silver tang buckle and quick release bars, so that you can easily swap out between your favourite watch straps and not have to fuss about scratching your watch lugs. No one will judge you for changing straps every day!
Note: All Waxed Camouflage straps are made-to-order and will take around 4 weeks before it is shipped out.
-
The main and lining leather used is Waxed Camouflage from Conceria la Bretagna tannery in Italy.
See here for more details on the leather we use, because calling them "full grain leather" or "genuine leather" on its own does not do it justice.

There are a total of 4 layers of various material that goes into each strap, with each layer serving a specific purpose. From top to bottom, they are: (1) exterior leather, (2) padding, (3) synthetic strengthener, (4) lining leather.

Tan Barenia Signature Watch Strap
$80.00
-
The quintessential brown leather strap. Barenia leather from Haas tannery in France is widely used by Hermes, and Hermes doesn't just choose any leather to use. It only uses the best. This is the same Barenia that Apple uses for its Apple Watch strap (check out that price!), and Hermes for its Birkin bag.
Barenia leather is soft and supple, just the right firmness, and has the perfect shade of brown. It has a very smooth surface, with just a tiny bit of gloss. Closer inspection can reveal the beautiful grain on this leather. It has moderate scratch resistance which means you don't need to baby the strap. Small scratches can be buffed out with just some slight rubbing. This also means that Barenia is able to develop a beautiful patina that results in a slight darkening of the leather with use.
All watch straps will come with a silver tang buckle and quick release bars, so that you can easily swap out between your favourite watch straps and not have to fuss about scratching your watch lugs. No one will judge you for changing straps every day!

Whiskey Horween Chromexcel Signature Strap
$80.00
-
When you make a signature style in a top-in-class leather, you're bound to get a winner. This Signature strap in Horween Chromexcel is what you have been waiting for. This leather is the stuff of legends. When people say leather, Chromexcel is the image that pops up in your head and Horween is the tannery that you think of. Why is that the case? Beautiful grain, smooth texture, rich colours, patina potential and that pull-up effect.
The Chromexcel strap starts off in a beautiful medium brown colour. This leather has a pronounced pull-up effect. What this means is that as the leather stretches, the colour changes. This is due to the movement of the oil and wax inside the leather. What results is a leather strap that wears and ages beautifully, with a rustic and vintage vibe. Also, due to the high percentage of wax, any scratches can also be easily buffed out with just a simple brushing or friction from rubbing. The pull-up effect fades away over time and evens back out. All this contributes to a leather strap that you don't ever want to take off from your watch.
All watch straps will come with a silver tang buckle and quick release bars, so that you can easily swap out between your favourite watch straps and not have to fuss about scratching your watch lugs. No one will judge you for changing straps every day!
Note: Any custom variants are made-to-order and will take four weeks before they are sent out!

Our side-stitch watch strap in Italian Veg Tan is the first item in our Side-Stitch line. The strap is made with just a single piece of leather, keeping the watch strap slim. This is perfect if you prefer a lower profile for your straps.

If you look really closely at each strap, you can see the beautiful pores and grain of the leather. That's how you know it's quality that will last you a lifetime.

Construction here is kept simple. A single piece of leather, 3mm thick. To hold the lug pins and buckle, the leather is skived to half the thickness and folded over on itself, before being stitched down. This keeps the thickness of the strap uniform throughout. The straps are then creased at the edges to give a nice, decorative line. Finally, the edges are burnished to seal the edges, which protects the leather from wear and tear, and water damage, over time.

Our side-stitch watch strap in Italian Veg Tan is the first item in our Side-Stitch line. The strap is made with just a single piece of leather, keeping the watch strap slim. This is perfect if you prefer a lower profile for your straps.
We decided to use veg tan leather from Italy for this strap, with 5 different colour options. Being veg-tanned means that the strap is stiff to begin with, but within a few days of wear it will mould to the shape of the wearer's wrist. If you look really closely at each strap, you can see the beautiful pores and grain of the leather. That's how you know it's quality that will last you a lifetime.
All watch straps will come with a silver tang buckle and quick release bars, so that you can easily swap out between your favourite watch straps and not have to fuss about scratching your watch lugs. No one will judge you for changing straps every day!

Construction here is kept simple. A single piece of leather, 3mm thick. To hold the lug pins and buckle, the leather is skived to half the thickness and folded over on itself, before being stitched down. This keeps the thickness of the strap uniform throughout. The straps are then creased at the edges to give a nice, decorative line. Finally, the edges are burnished to seal the edges, which protects the leather from wear and tear, and water damage, over time.
