The Original Vintage Highley is very much a staple in the WatchGecko range of leather straps. It’s proven to be incredibly popular among customers and continues to be a top seller. And taking a closer look at it it’s easy to see why…
This is a generous strap in every way. It’s thickly padded (6mm thick at the lug end) and made from the very best Italian vegetable-tanned, full-grain leather. The supple pull-up leather is oiled and will age with grace, picking up patina as it’s worn.
This strap is well-suited to a huge variety of mid-size to large watches, from dive watches to pilot watches; and everyday wear watches. However, for a more subtle fit better suited to slim dress and vintage watches, the Classic Highley may be just what you're looking for...
If you need to remove the quick-release spring bars then you can learn how to easily remove quick-release spring bars in our video.
Key Features
- Handmade.
- Certified genuine vegetable-tanned, full-grain Italian leather.
- Quick-release spring bars.
- Length: 120mm/80mm.
- Thickness: 6mm tapering to 2.5mm at the buckle.
- The strap features a cut edge, finished with colour-matched paint for a seamless finish and to help prevent moisture penetration and improve durability.
- Stamped and etched with the WatchGecko logo for reassurance of genuine quality.
About The Certified Sustainable Italian Leather
The Vintage Highley uses certified vegetable-tanned, full-grain Italian leather produced by a member of the Consorzio Vera Pelle Italiana Conciata Al Vegetale. This consortium of tanneries in Tuscany exclusively uses natural plant-derived tannins and centuries-old techniques to create quality controlled sustainable leathers. As a result, this strap will continue to develop patina and only get better as it wears in and begins to age. We guarantee that we use certified leathers from these tanneries.
