Minerva Box leather comes from Badalassi Carlo tannery from Italy, which also makes many popular leather articles such as Pueblo and Waxy. It has a beautiful naturally pebbled surface texture that comes as a result of the tanning process, giving it a lot of character and depth.
Note: Minerva Box is a naturally tumbled leather and hence has both pebbled and smooth surfaces. The strap that you receive may not be uniformly pebbled or smooth.
Nice leather material, but it’s not a hit. First, I thought I sized myself correctly (using the insanely confusing sizing guidance), but I went too big. The band was good for the first wear or two, but afterwards, I feel it stretched a bit and now is way too loose. Second, the additional loop to hold the excess band slides back up against the fixed loop, making it relatively useless. This is a big pain considering I need it to do it’s job. Finally, the return policy here is rough. When I first tried the band, I worried about the length and considered an exchange. That thought was fleeting once I saw how strict the policy was and the fee that would be levied for a creased band. Hopefully, I can recoup some of my cost on eBay. P.S. > Only a 5% discount for a review? That’s pretty weak.
This strap is the right shade of deep brown that can dress up a tool watch. As always I keep coming back to delugs for the great quality and customisation options at a great price.
Great strap in top quality leather. As other reviewers have noted, soft and comfortable. A strap that works well for both dress and sports watches.
I bought this 20mm Dark Brown Minerva Box Signature Strap for my Seiko Cocktail Time (srpb041), which wasn't getting any wrist time because I didn't like the bracelet. It was a shame, since this blue Cocktail Time is a genuine strap monster. in short, this strap went beyond all my expectations: beautiful leather, soft and immediately comfortable, it shows how easily you can transform a wonderful watch into one you actually want to wear!
