Espresso Suede

First strap I ordered was flawless, but in this second order the green suede spring bar ends are not very rounded, very difficult to fit in as the suede is about 0.5mm wider than lug width (had to struggle stuffing it in), and hole for quick-release spring bar is a bit larger than desired. Still a great strap but not as flawless as my first order experience.

The strap is very well made; we'll see how it feels as it ages. What I would have liked for this price was a higher-quality buckle; fortunately, I had one from Delugs and swapped it out.

The color is absolutely dialed in. A rich espresso brown with depth and variation that gives it real character. In different light it shifts subtly, which pairs perfectly with the warmth of the dial and the blue accents. It looks intentional and elevated, not just another brown strap. The suede texture is on another level. Soft and refined but still structured enough to hold its shape. It feels broken in from day one without feeling flimsy. This is the kind of strap you put on and immediately know it is the right choice. The 20 to 16 taper is perfect. It gives the watch a more tailored and balanced profile on the wrist. The stitching is clean, consistent, and adds just the right amount of contrast without being loud. Every detail is executed properly. Fit is spot on. The regular length sits perfectly and the strap lays flat with zero resistance. Comfort is immediate. What really stands out is how much this strap elevates the entire watch. It transforms the piece from standard to something far more considered and refined. This feels like a true custom product made with care, not something mass produced. If you are thinking about upgrading your watch with a custom strap, this is an easy decision. Top tier craftsmanship and worth every dollar.
