PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

This is a dark brown with an olive cast and near-black ridges across the grain. The Olive Brown Shark leather watch strap has black stitching, so the edges stay dark and the grain carries the look. It goes with black, green, cream and brown dials, on steel or bronze cases.

This is the Padded version, 4.5mm thick at the lugs and 2.0mm at the tail, with a cushioned centre that rises above the edges. The extra thickness gives it presence next to field, pilot and other larger watches.

A black buckle suits the dark stitching, while yellow gold draws out the brown.

Shark Leather

Shark Leather

The exotic made for everyday.

Our shark leather is selected by hand for its tight, rugged grain and natural ridges, which create a matte, understated surface and make it a practical exotic. It suits tool and field watches particularly well.

  • Feel: flexible, despite its rugged look
  • Surface: the ridged grain can make scuffs less noticeable
  • Daily wear: occasional moisture, wiped dry after wear, caused little visible change in our tests
  • Over time: tends to stay matte, with marks blending into the grain

Each hide is selected and cut by hand at our Da Nang workshop to showcase its natural ridges and grain. The water, perspiration and colour notes above come from our tests on finished straps.

    The grain and colour you see, checked by hand.

  2. Reinforcement layer

    Holds the strap’s shape and limits stretching.

  3. Reinforced ends

    Extra strength at the spring bars.

  4. Zermatt lining

    Soft calfskin from Tanneries Haas.

Multi-coat edge finish. Edges are sanded, sealed and painted, or folded on folded-edge straps.
