Buckle & Stitch Black Leather Rally Watch Strap Perforated Vintage Racing Band 22mm Red Contrast Stitching Full Grain Men Ladies Tool Spring Bars Included (22 mm, Red)

[DESIGN] Crafted from soft, smooth grain calf leather, this luxury watch strap is comfortable and pliable straight out of the box. In vintage rally strap style, large perforations run the length of the strap, allowing the wrist to breathe and reducing the weight of the band. Available in black with 4 stitching colours – black, white, red, and orange – you can opt for a classic, sleek all black style, a retro look with white contrast stitching, or a modern pop of colour with orange or red stitching. A brushed stainless steel buckle completes this sleek and sporty style. [TRADITIONAL SPRING BARS] As do all the major Swiss watch brands, we prefer traditional spring bars, which offer a more robust and secure connection between the watch case and the strap. Each purchase includes a pair of perfectly fitting spring bars and one of our top-selling spring bar tools to help you easily swap out your watch strap. [HISTORY] Dating back to the mid-20th century, rally drivers needed a watch strap that could withstand the rigors of high-speed racing while providing quick and easy readability of their timepieces. Traditional metal bracelets were often uncomfortable and prone to damage, leading to the development of leather rallye watch straps. [COMFORT] The lining of a watch strap often goes overlooked but, for us, it's key. We used nubuck leather to line these straps for long-lasting comfort on your wrist. Nubuck is made by gently sanding top-grain leather to give it a slight nap. The resulting material has the durability of tough, top-grain leather, but with the luxuriously soft, velvet-like feel of suede. [FIT] This strap is 135mm at its shortest setting and 170mm at its longest setting. Your watch size is critical to whether this strap will fit your wrist. Assuming a typical lug-to-lug length of 45mm, this strap will fit wrists between 180-215mm (7.1" - 8.4"), but please measure your watch and check the sizing guide to be sure. [STRAP MEASUREMENTS] 190mm total length, not including the buckle. Short side: 75mm. Long side: 115mm. Thickness: 4.4mm approx. Taper: 2mm. Two keepers, one fixed, one floating.
