Vintage Puzzle.
This absolute beauty is made from Chicago’s finest rich brown Horween leather. It is stitched in a dark grey thread but can be stitched in any colour of your choice. Once fitted to your wrist size it closes with a single stud allowing the strap to cover the buckle and keeper to give a smooth appearance. I can also make this for fixed lug watches, please let me know when you place an order.
