“I’m often asked to recommend straps to clients and friends. The variables are many but dial and case material play the biggest part. Considering the ideal strap for myself proved to be harder than I thought.

Having the run of our extensive leather collection made it easier. I settled on this beautiful dark Taupe Smooth Calf skin that we’d managed to buy a while back, but were disappointed to not get anymore.

I was looking for a refined and understated strap that could be worn with both a modern Daytona and also with a vintage Submariner. It had to be super soft from the get go and cut very thin. Perfect matching edges and our signature lining.

The biggest aesthetic was choosing a matching tone on tone stitch. Instantly making the strap easy to wear with a suit as well as a pair of jeans at the weekend.

I’m delighted that we can finally offer our customers a smooth calf strap in this colour, even if it’s in very limited quantities.

The final result, a beauty, I hope you think so too!”

A little care can go a long way in not only protecting your strap but also extending it’s life. The first and most important rule is to make sure that you avoid water at all costs. Water is the mortal enemy of leather and will stain, discolour and weaken the fibres. So no showering, swimming or exercising while wearing your strap.

Like a good pair of shoes, if you get the chance to rotate your straps then this will allow you to enjoy them a little longer.

When you’re not wearing your strap, then we suggest storing it in a cool dry place away from direct sunlight and excessive heat.
