L04 - Beppe - available in stock! 26/26 -130/80 True Vintage Sewn-in Stainless Steel Buckle

The Strap is meticulously handcrafted following historical techniques.
Because of its authentic character, we have already built the strap with an historical steel sew-in buckle..

• The strap is suitable for wrist sizes ranging from 16cm to 20cm, as we have punched the first hole at 43mm from the lug.
  
  
• The distance from center hole to center hole is only 7mm. We have punched a total of 7 round holes.

Width and Thickness

• The length is 130mm on the long side and 80mm on the short side.
• The strap has a thickness of approximately 4mm to 5mm.

Holes

• We have punched the holes to fit the sewn-in buckle, and a loop has been sewn in. This allows for a perfect fit on the wrist later on.
• Number of holes: 7 holes

Manufacturing Method

• The strap adheres to the classic manufacturing method of the original.
• Each individual stitch hole is hand-punched with an antique awl and double hand-sewn with waxed thread.
• The buckle and the first keeper sit in a loop
• A loose keeper
• Historical Sew-in Steel Buckle

Materials Used

• Soft and high-quality cowhide leather from a German tannery (Traditionally vegetable-tanned leather from Pirmasens).
• Tear-resistant and stable waxed thread from German production!
• Beeswax leather balm (resin and acid-free)

Tradition and Passion

• The band is made using historical folding and sewing techniques from the 1950s. Only antique tools, from the old awl to the antique leather knife and old leather planes, are used.
• Vintage appearances and wear marks are realized through hours of handwork by grinding and polishing. The leather is not painted with color afterward, and no chemicals are used.
• Finally, the band is treated with seawater and leather fat.
