Watch straps-handcrafted shell cordovan 2 piece & handcrafted vintage leather 2 piece

STYLE, STYLE, STYLE - WATCH STRAPS - HANDCRAFTED SHELL CORDOVAN 2 PIECE & HANDCRAFTED VINTAGE LEATHER 2 PIECE

Cant find those stylish watch straps that we have been looking for, for so long? You know!!! the ones that we have all been seeing on those oh so stylish Italian wrists. Finally, having researched the world of fine leather, i have found what i wanted and am happy to share them with you.
Its not like i haven't got enough to do, with Oyster prices going through the roof, low key being the name of the game and of course, having a bit of fun like those Panerai chaps, but these straps are too good not to be available to all. Further pics, details, pricing etc on my website...which I wont plug here...google it or email me if you dont know.

Please confirm stock availability by email - info@thetimetraveler.com.au

Ordering is easy and through Paypal. Send your order to [email]info@thetimetraveler.com.au [email] In the notes section, please confirm the order details and your favoured shipping address. Signed for takes about 4 days to Asia and one week to USA and UK....We aim to ship first business day after order. Strict, first come first served basis. The two piece straps take a 16mm buckle....due to popular demand we now ship WITH a generic buckle.

Handcrafted Horween Shell Cordovan 2 piece straps - US$125 each plus US$12 p&p(subsidised). Available in 4 colours - Black, Brown, Dark Tan and Light Tan - 20mm and 19mm.



This is considered the finest leather in the world. It is found in only the best quality shoe manufactures and leather accessories of the highest quality. It is only treated in one place in the world and stamped with their unique brand. Every hide is treated in special oils and waxes for 7-9 months and must pass tough quality control measures before release.
After wearing your strap, it quickly becomes as soft as butter and NO STRAP will wear as well or as long as the Horween Shell Cordovan. It is virtually waterproof and the more you wear it, the better it becomes.

Handcrafted Vintage Leather 2 piece straps - US$99 plus $12p&p. Available in 9 colours – Light Tan, Charcoal, Espresso, Grey Leather, Caramel, Chocolate Brown, Grey Suede, Mid-Brown Suede, Charcoal Suede – 20mm



These two piece leather straps are handcrafted in USA and Germany using the best leathers, some reclaimed vintage leather and some new which is taken through the traditional tanning process to give you a vintage feel. All of the 2 piece leathers are vegetable tanned - this is a method of tanning that is seldom used anymore and is the way that leather was tanned 50 plus years ago. Tanning leather this way makes for a much better looking, longer lasting, vintage feeling, looking leather.
This is the major difference between vegetable tanned leather and modern chrome tanned leather, of which 99% of the leather straps sold are today. You can have leather that is tanned overnight, but it will never look or feel the same as vegetable tanned leather that takes 9 months!!! I know what I prefer!!!




Return Policy: All straps accepted for return within 7 days as long as unworn and unmarked. If it’s a cock up on our part then we pay the postage. If you change your mind...you do...simple...no harm no foul.
