Shown as watch end → strap ends. 2.5 → 1.8 mm means 2.5 mm beside the watch, tapering to 1.8 mm toward the tip and the buckle end. If unsure, keep the recommended option.
Enter both thickness measurements.
WidthLug → buckle · mm
Lug width is the inside gap between your watch’s lugs and must match it. We make any width, for example 19.5. Buckle width is the narrow end, an even number from 10 to 24 mm, never wider than the lug width.
Buckle width cannot be wider than lug width.
LengthLong → short · mm
The long end must be at least as long as the short end.
Thread colorOptional
Keep the thread in the product photos, match it to the leather, choose cream for contrast, or pick another color. Not shown for Stitchless straps.

Curved endOptional
A curved end finishes the strap end in a gentle curve (+$10). It’s a style detail: it isn’t made to match your watch case exactly, so a gap may remain.
PersonalizationOptional
Up to 10 characters, embossed inside the lining. We emboss exactly what you type, so please check spelling and capitals.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Black is the classic choice for a dress watch. On this Black Epsom leather watch strap, cream stitching traces the edge and stands out against the black, which gives it a slightly more casual look than black-on-black stitching. It pairs with white, silver and black dials, and with steel, gold or black cases.
The Slim style is 2.5mm thick at the lugs and 1.8mm at the tail. It keeps a low profile on the wrist and fits easily under a cuff, which makes it a good match for dress watches and thin automatics.
Choose the black buckle for an all-black look, or silver to match a steel case.
