At 4mm thick, the leather provides a substantial feel without being overly bulky. Each strap is hand-stitched using strong thread, which helps the strap hold its shape and resist pulling at the stitch holes. The leather is available in brown, red, and black, each with a uniform dye finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSize and Practical Fit\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWidth options include 49mm, 45mm, 42mm, and 41mm, covering a broad range of watch lug openings. The strap is supplied in lengths of 125mm and 75mm, which together accommodate most wrist sizes, with the shorter piece sitting under the buckle. The 4mm thickness adds a robust, traditional profile to the watch.
