Light Grey Nubuck Strap for Vacheron Constantin Overseas
Chat with us now
If you're reading this, you would probably already know how well-regarded the VC Overseas is. While the watch has a lot going for it, one of the key selling points was the extremely thoughtful design of the strap attachment system - you can easily switch between different straps and the bracelet (in seconds and without tools!) with their proprietary quick change system. But being a proprietary system, that meant that you had to get straps only through Vacheron Constantin - good if you prefer to stick with OEM, but not so good for your wallet. There wasn't any viable alternatives on the market, until now.
Our VCO Ready Stock straps are made with a taper to 18mm at the buckle width, instead of the typical 20mm for the OEM VCO straps. This provides a more elegant tapering that is better suited for leather straps, although it does mean that you cannot use the OEM VCO Deployant Clasp with these straps. However, you can still add our standard deployant clasp to be used with these straps.
Nubuck has a soft touch with a short and even nap. It is supple and flexible from the start, but yet has just the right amount of structure. This strap is great if you are looking for something that's casual enough for all your daily activities, soft and comfortable to the touch, and an alternative to regular leather texture.

What's Included
Strap Length Guide
There are two sides per strap, which we refer to as the long end and the short end, which are represented by C and D respectively in the diagram below.
Our handcrafted leather straps come in 3 different lengths.
- Small (C: 105mm, D: 65mm)
- Medium (C: 115mm, D: 70mm)
- Large (C: 125mm, D: 75mm)
A quick way to decide on the length to get is based on your wrist size. Here is the general recommendation (if you are between sizes, we recommend to size up):
- Wrist size of 14.5cm - 17.0cm: Small
- Wrist size of 16.5cm - 19.0cm : Medium
- Wrist size of 18.5cm - 21.0cm: Large
If you need a strap that is shorter than Small (105/65), or longer than Large (125/75), you can always have the strap custom made.

Hope this quick guide helps! Finding the perfect length to get can be a little bit more complicated, as it also depends on the lug-to-lug distance of your watch, and even the shape of your wrist. For a more detailed guide on sizing, please check out this page.

Scratch-Resistant
Pliable
The strap is very soft and flexible, and is extremely comfortable with zero break-in required. This is owing to both the type of material used, and the overall construction of the strap.
Integrated
The strap provides an integrated fit with the watch - i.e. there is no gap between the strap and the case. This also means that the strap will only fit the specific model / reference number of watch as specified in the listing, and will not fit any other references.
Chrome Tanned
The animal hide is turned into leather through a tanning process that uses chromium salts and tanning liquors. Chrome-tan is a more industrial tanning process, and the resultant leather is typically more pliable, with greater water-resistance and scratch-resistance properties. Chrome-tanned leather are generally also available in a wider range of colours.
