Custom Watch Strap – Vintage Military Leather
Military leather is cut from various pieces of vintage military equipment and clothing. Each strap made from military leather will be 100% unique and one of a kind. The surface texture and condition will vary depending on the age and amount of use each piece of equipment has seen. Minor marks, stains, and blemishes are common.

Strap Length
There are two lengths required, the tail end and the buckle end. Lengths are also measured in millimeters like this: 125/75mm.
NOTE: The buckle end measurement does NOT include the length of the buckle.
A typical OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) strap is 115/75. My leather is thicker than most OEM straps so if you like the stock length I suggest you order your strap in 125/75mm.
Below is a basic wrist chart to follow:
Wrist Circumference= Strap Lengths
6.0-6.5" 15-16.5cm = 120/75mm
6.6-6.9" 16.6-17.5cm = 125/75mm
7.0-7.5" 17.6-19cm = 130/80mm
7.6-7.9" 19.1-20cm = 135/85mm
8.0-8.5" 20.1-21.5cm = 140/90mm
8.6-9.0" 21.6-23cm = 145/95mm
If you want extra tail on your strap, add 15mm to the tail end and 5mm to the buckle end.
Strap Width
The distance between the lugs (where the strap is attached) is typically measured in millimeters and usually determines the width of the strap. I cut every strap one millimeter wider to account for wear between the lugs, it will be snug at first but fit nicely with use.
