Overton Conceria Opera Suede V-Stitch Watch Strap - Midnight Blue

At the heart of our leather watch strap collection is a commitment to premium materials and ethical sourcing. Many of our watch straps use vegetable-tanned, full-grain Italian leather, from Tuscan tanneries that are part of the Vera Pelle consortium. This process is more time-intensive and costly than chemical tanning, but it preserves the natural character of the hide and is far more environmentally responsible.

Over time, your strap will develop a unique patina that reflects your own wear - a living finish that tells a story. This isn’t just a watch strap; it’s a piece that evolves with you, gaining depth, softness, and richness with every day on your wrist.

Every watch strap in our collection is the result of precise craftsmanship and meticulous attention to detail. Edges are carefully cut and either hand-painted or sealed to ensure a refined look that resists wear. Stitching is robust, perfectly aligned, and often hand-finished for extra strength.

Padded models such as the popular Highley are shaped to maintain their form over years of wear, while flat, unpadded versions are expertly skived for a seamless, elegant profile. This level of craftsmanship ensures that each strap is not only beautiful when new, but also resilient enough to handle years of daily use without losing its integrity.

A good leather strap doesn’t just look right - it has to fit and feel right, too. Our designs are tailored to complement watches of all shapes and sizes, from slim dress models to robust sports pieces. The Original Highley offers substantial padding for presence and comfort, while the Classic Highley has been refined to a slimmer profile for a sleeker wrist fit.

Many straps feature quick-release spring bars, allowing you to change straps in seconds with no tools - perfect for switching from a formal look to a casual one without fuss. We combine traditional aesthetics with modern convenience, so your strap always works for your lifestyle as well as your watch.

Leather is as much about colour and character as it is about texture. Our range covers everything from deep, classic browns and timeless blacks to more distinctive shades like Reef, Vintage Blue, or rich oxblood tones. Some leathers are smooth and uniform for a polished look, while others showcase natural grain or distressed finishes for a more rugged character.

This variety means there’s a perfect match for every watch and every occasion - whether you want understated elegance for the office or a statement piece for weekend wear.

For those who demand the very best, our premium straps - such as the Laverton or Boutsen, and other select models in the Premium Collection - take refinement to the next level. These straps often feature more durable padding, specially selected grain textures, and additional finishing touches like contrasting stitching or polished hardware.

The result is a strap that doesn’t just complement your watch, but enhances it - transforming the whole wearing experience. They’re ideal for pairing with high-end timepieces or for when you want your strap to be as much of a conversation piece as your watch itself.
