The Overton Vintage V-Stitch strap collection features a variety of premium Minerva Box leather and suede leather watch straps. These Minerva Box leather straps use vegetable-tanned calf leather from the Badalassi Carlo tannery in Italy, producing an incredibly smooth and supple strap.
Our line of Overton Vintage V-Stitch genuine leather straps takes on a classic strap design with a v-stitch at the tip in a contrasting and durable thread. This leather watch strap includes a stainless-steel buckle and quick-release spring bars so you can swap between straps tool-free.
The Overton Vintage V-Stitch leather straps are made from Minerva Box leather sourced from the renowned Badalassi Carlo tannery in Tuscany, Italy. The Minerva Box leather is a tumbled vegetable-tanned leather which has a natural grain. This means that the texture of the leather will vary slightly from strap to strap. Overall, Minerva Box is one of the best vegetable-tanned leathers in the world, and it makes for a supple and richly coloured strap.
