FS: **HV Straps** Stitch-less handmade vintage style straps

Like you see in the vintage catalogues..

100% hand made, with Black English Saddle leather, lined with super soft lambskin (nappa). Distressed finish, black / deep gunmetal grey look. Super soft, but tough, flex has a nice amount of spring to it, so wear extremely comfortably - will hold the head of a heavy watch extremely well. (no floppy straps here!)

My aim here was to try to build something that has a Swiss Tropic strap vibe, but in leather, and chunkier at the lugs.

All 20mm tapering to 16mm, (I do have one 21mm and a few 19mm).
Thickness tapers too... Approx 4-5mm thick at the lugs, tapering in thickness to approx 2 - 2.5mm thick at the tip. (buckle side a little thicker for balance)
Length: approx 125/80. One big wide stiff keeper, vintage style. These are perfect for Autavias!

Shipping is Free anywhere, 16mm stainless buckle is free.

I only have a limited amount of these thicker types.. and a few have been bagged already.

£69GBP ALL IN, FREE International Delivery, Free buckle.
Via paypal. First come first served!!

Just email me at: stewmorley888@gmail.com
Satisfaction absolutely guaranteed.. if you're not happy, I'll sort you out no questions asked.

Note: due to being chunky at the lugs, may be awkward to fit to shorter lugged watches.. but I managed it with my Autavia.. I simply widened the pin bar hole with a small screwdriver (see pic on Autavia lower down).
I tend to make my straps slightly over 20mm.. so around 20.1 / 20.2 for a good snug lug fit.
