Handmade Shark Skin Belt - Burgundy

Handmade shark skin watch strap

In my workshop, I handcraft watch straps from the finest, carefully selected leathers. If your current strap needs replacing or you're looking to give your watch a new, unique look, this model is a perfect choice.

This strap is crafted from burgundy sharkskin from a renowned Italian tannery known for processing the highest quality exotic leathers. Shark leather boasts a distinctive, rough texture and exceptional abrasion resistance. It's exceptionally durable yet flexible, ensuring the strap retains its shape and aesthetics for years to come. Its subtle, matte sheen and unique texture give each piece a unique, elegant look that pairs perfectly with both classic and modern watches.

For added durability, I used Velodon reinforcement material in the strap's construction. This special, technical material, just 0.2 mm thick, is renowned for its tear and stretch resistance. It allows the strap to maintain a slim profile while remaining exceptionally durable and stable in everyday use.

The strap is approximately 4mm thick at the lugs, gradually tapering to approximately 2mm at the tip, giving it an elegant, well-proportioned shape. It's hand-stitched using leather-colored linen thread, enhancing its classic, seamless look.

The edges are carefully finished with high-quality paint in a shade matching the leather, ensuring aesthetics and durability. The strap is equipped with quick- release spring bars for quick and easy installation.

The lining is made of the renowned and highly regarded Zermatt leather – waterproof and hypoallergenic. This makes the strap exceptionally comfortable to wear and resistant to wear.
