Navy Blue French Alpine calf leather watch strap. 12mm-24mm

This one is quite special. It is an Alpine shrunken calf leather that is so soft and supple, it's a joy to wear. The grain adds a lovely dimension and texture, which is one of the standout features of this leather. The navy blue color perfectly matches the blued hand on the Reverso. It's a fantastic choice for both men and women. The leather also has the bonus of being quite resistant to scratches, so it should look great for a long time.

As with all my straps, I personally make each one to order to ensure it is finished to the highest standard. I use only traditional craft techniques—no machines—in their creation. I also hand-stitch every part. Although all this is labor-intensive, the end result is worth the effort when I’ve created something unique and beautiful that will be worn and enjoyed.

Details:
The strap shown in the picture is 19mm at the lug, tapering to 16mm at the buckle, and is the standard size: 115mm / 75mm.
The stitching is done in a matching waxed linen thread.
I use Zermatt leather for the lining, which is sweat-resistant (great in summer) and hypoallergenic.
The edges are smoothed and painted, then finished with beeswax, giving a smooth, silky finish.

Straps will be tapered as standard to fit these buckle sizes:

• 24mm lug width to 22mm buckle

• 22mm lug width to 20mm buckle

• 21mm lug width to 18mm buckle

As I make the straps to order, I am able to accommodate requests for length and stitching color. 

All straps come with a buckle and quick release spring bars.
