FS: Thick leather Aviator pilot's bands to carry big watches

Now available in SMOOTH CHESTNUT BROWN with matching or white stitching, LIZARD GRAIN LEATHER in golden brown, CROCODILE GRAIN LEATHER in reddish brown, or BLACK with black stitching. Sizes available are 18mm, 20mm, 22mm and 24mm.

My popular AVIATORS pilot’s straps are custom-made for me in England, but shipped to you quickly from the United States. With the ends that open and close with the screw fittings, these straps are the perfect solution for any fixed lug watch or a great vintage look on a watch that takes spring bars. AVIATORS are 4mm thick. The heavy-duty military type construction means that these straps can easily and safely carry even the heaviest of modern chronographs or big military style watches. The beefy buckles are stainless steel.

AVIATORS have two sandwiched layers of high-quality leather. Each AVIATOR strap is made in the United Kingdom to my specifications. These straps measure 8 1/8 inches (21cm) long when placed end to end, not counting the buckle, with the ends closed. Each band is embossed “AVIATOR” and stamped “ENGLISH MADE.”
