This vintage leather watch strap was custom-made as a gift, a meaningful gesture between two individuals connected by the sea. It was designed not only to serve a practical function but also to express care, respect, and attention to detail while complementing the character of the timepiece.
The watch itself features a beige dial with blue hour markers and elements inspired by naval instruments. These visual references set the tone for the entire project. The strap needed to match the aesthetic of the watch and emphasize its historical and emotional presence.
After careful discussions with the client, we selected full-grain bovine leather with a vintage-effect finish. This material was chosen specifically to create a vintage leather watch strap that harmonizes with the aged look of the case and the subtle patina of the dial. The leather’s soft texture and muted tone convey understated strength and refinement.
All stitching was done entirely by hand using MeiSi Super Fine waxed linen thread. The primary stitch matches the warm beige of the dial, while light blue accents were added at key points to reflect the color of the hour markings. These small details create a discreet yet thoughtful connection between the strap and the watch face.
The strap was shaped anatomically to follow the curve of the wrist, ensuring immediate comfort without the need for breaking in. It measures 115 by 75 millimeters and tapers from 24 to 22 millimeters. The inner lining is made from hypoallergenic, water-resistant leather in a tone that complements the outer material. A stainless steel deployant clasp completes the piece, offering security and ease of wear.
Hidden within the layers are Jaeger reinforcements, which help the strap retain its structure and strength over time.
This vintage leather watch strap is more than a practical component — it’s a respectful addition to a timepiece with character and personal meaning.
