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.
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!
