Introducing the German Hand-Stitched Crazy Horse Leather Watch Strap, produced from the highest quality German-sourced Crazy Horse leather. A practical choice for everyday wear, it boasts a wax coating that enhances the leather's tactile sensation, ensuring comfort on the wrist.
Natural breathability allows the leather to absorb the oils from your skin over time, resulting in a glossy sheen that enhances the appearance of the watch strap. Your premium leather strap will naturally acquire a more pronounced vintage aesthetic as it is worn and gently weathered.
Meticulously stitched and adorned with a timeless stainless steel buckle, this artisanal strap showcases beige edge stitching for a striking contrast against the leather. Additionally, its colour-matched painted edge makes it the perfect complement to any dress watch.
Lastly, the Hanley Leather Watch Strap incorporates quick-release spring bars for easy strap changes and is stamped and etched with the WatchGecko logo for reassurance of quality.
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.
Produced from rich full-grain cowhide, natural wax is applied by experienced craftsmen to enhance the leather's look and feel producing sleek and polished leather. Crazy Horse leather has unique and exotic appearance due to the way the leather responds to waxing and is also known to be water-resistant. It is well-known to provide a timeless vintage look adding style to your wrist.
