Size Guide
The ‘lug width’ is simply the internal width measured between the lugs (where the watch strap fits) of the watch.

Hatherley Badalassi Carlo Wax Leather Watch Strap
The Hatherley Badalassi Carlo Watch Strap is crafted for watch enthusiasts who value authentic materials, traditional craftsmanship, and leather that improves with age.
At its core is premium vegetable-tanned Italian waxed leather from the Badalassi Carlo tannery in Tuscany. Established in the heart of Italy’s historic leather-making region, Badalassi Carlo is renowned for producing some of the finest vegetable-tanned leathers in the world. Using time-honoured techniques, the hides are slowly tanned with natural plant extracts, oils, and waxes, resulting in leather that is strong, breathable, and rich in character.
Unlike heavily processed or chrome-tanned leathers, vegetable-tanned Badalassi Carlo leather ages naturally. With wear, it softens and develops a deep, individual patina, darkening subtly and revealing tonal variation that reflects how the strap is used. This makes each Hatherley strap unique to its owner, evolving alongside the watch it carries.
Artisan Production
Once tanned, the leather is sent to Valencia, Spain, where the straps are hand-assembled by experienced artisans. This region has a long tradition of leatherworking, and each strap is carefully cut, stitched, and finished by hand. Attention is paid to every detail, from the precision of the stitching to the sealed edges, ensuring long-term durability and comfort on the wrist.
Finished in a choice of distinctive colours, the leather is complemented by contrasting beige or matching stitching, giving the strap a versatile, slightly vintage character that pairs effortlessly with both modern and classic watches. At approximately 2.8mm thick, the Hatherley offers a reassuring presence without excessive bulk, making it ideal for everyday wear.

Why Choose a Hatherley Badalassi Carlo Wax Leather Watch Strap - Barley Brown ?
Ages Beautifully with Wear
Infused with natural oils and waxes during tanning, the leather develops a rich patina over time. As the strap is worn, it softens, darkens, and takes on a character unique to you — a hallmark of high-quality vegetable-tanned leather.
Hand-Assembled by Skilled Artisans
Each Hatherley strap is hand-assembled in Valencia, Spain, with careful attention paid to stitching, edge finishing, and overall construction. This hands-on approach ensures consistent quality, long-term durability, and a refined feel on the wrist.
Built for Everyday Wear
At approximately 2.8 mm thick, the Hatherley offers a reassuring presence without feeling bulky. The leather quickly breaks in, delivering a comfortable fit that works equally well for daily wear or more considered watch pairings.
Designed for Ease and Reliability
The Hatherley strap is finished with a brushed 316L stainless steel buckle, chosen for its strength, corrosion resistance, and understated appearance. Combined with robust stitching and carefully sealed edges, every component is selected to ensure long-term reliability and confidence in everyday wear.
