Introducing the Hand-Stitched Textured Italian Leather Watch Strap – an impeccable blend of comfort and style. This genuine handmade watch strap is produced from the finest Italian Alpine leather. The lining of the strap is honey-coloured calf leather and provides premium comfort on the wrist. Stamped with the WatchGecko logo alongside the strap sizing and the words ‘Italian Leather Handmade’ for reassurance of quality.
Handcrafted Saddle Stitching
The strap is meticulously hand-stitched using the saddle stitch method, a traditional and time-intensive technique that requires two needles and cannot be replicated by machines. This method ensures perfectly even and durable stitching, a hallmark of premium quality. When executed flawlessly, the saddle stitch is exceptionally strong and resistant to unravelling, making it a superior choice for high-end watch straps.
Versatile Fit and Slim Design
There are 6 adjustment holes to suit your wrist size and the 2-piece strap lengths measure at 75mm/115mm and are designed to fit any standard-sized wrist. Designed for standard 1.8mm spring bars, this strap enjoys generous tapering and is just 2.7mm thick.
Available in a variety of colours, this classic design is becoming a firm favourite of ours and is suitable for all but the thickest of watches.
