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

The Leuven strap uses horse leather that has been vegetable-tanned with leaves and olive tree bark, achieving a beautiful and supple finish which feels very comfortable on the wrist. The tanning process also gives this strap the durability to last, developing a pattern as it ages.
Each strap is a unique and timeless piece, meticulously crafted by hand in a family-run workshop in Oostende, Belgium. Their experienced workers dedicate a great deal of time to creating each watch strap, never compromising on quality and always striving to offer the best possible leathers.

The handstitched edge of the Leuven strap has been expertly executed using contrasting thread and is hand-painted with a colour stain to match the leather. This watch strap is available in various lug widths and features a robust stainless-steel buckle with a highly polished finish.

Why Choose a Leuven Cavallo Flat Handmade Horse Leather Watch Strap - Chocolate Brown ?
Careful Preparation
At each stage of the process, the materials are carefully checked. The pieces are individually cut out, and each watch strap is made one at a time. After the leather pieces have been selected and cut, they are adjusted to the correct thickness.
Before the parts are glued together, the lining of the strap is stamped with the details of the leather and our logo. Stamping at this stage ensures that the top leather cannot be damaged by the stamping process.
Assembled By Hand
Many years of experience are required to hand-make premium leather watch straps such as these. Typically, there are around one hundred steps in the production process, and each member of the team has their own area of expertise.
The process takes several days, and the straps move around the workshop as they progress from one stage to the next.
Stitching And Painting
Some of our designs are stitched by hand, one stitch at a time. Others are sewn with a machine. Either way, each strap is unique. All of the straps are painted by hand at the edges using a special paint, either with a contrasting or matching colour.
Before the edges can be painted, they are carefully examined to ensure that they are perfectly smooth and free of any defects. Then the paint is applied by hand using a wheel or a brush.
Quality Is Assured
These straps are the top of our range, our most premium product, so when the straps have been fully assembled, each one is subject to a quality inspection.
Every watch strap is individually checked one final time to ensure that it is perfect, and only straps that pass this final part of the process will be fitted with a buckle.

- Over a decade of experience.
- An internationally renowned destination for watch enthusiasts.
- A trusted choice for new buyers entering the world of horology.
- Our passion for watches inspires us to craft straps that enhance timepieces, blending style and functionality seamlessly.
