Colour #8 Horween Chromexcel Leather Strap

Our Chromexcel leather is a combination-tanned (chrome, then vegetable-tanned) leather from Horween in Chicago USA. Colour #8 is a deep brown with hints of reddish burgundy, which will become more visible over time. 

Tannery: Horween, USA
Temper: Soft
Surface: Smooth, semi-supple with a waxy finish
Patina: No
Water Resistance: Moderate. To ensure longevity, avoid moisture or soaking our straps in water.

As our straps are handcrafted with natural leather, each strap will be unique and may have slight variations to the product photo.

Chromexcel is the classic “pull-up” leather, quickly developing character when folded and flexed. The grease that has been impregnated into the leather causes a lovely tonal effect on the surface. This type of leather is perfect for watch straps because it is pliable, water resistant and develops a beautiful patina quickly.

All of our watch straps are entirely handmade one by one, utilising traditional leather crafting techniques. They are cut, saddle stitched and edge painted by hand to ensure that your strap lasts you a lifetime. All of our straps are lined with Zermatt leather, a hypoallergenic and water-resistant french calf leather.

For an approximate wrist size guide:
1. Extra small 95mm/65mm will fit a 5.0-5.5 inch wrist
2. Small sized 105mm/70mm will fit a 6.0-6.5 inch wrist
3. Standard size 115mm/75mm will fit a 6.5-7.5 inch wrist
4. Large size 125mm/80mm will fit a 7.5-8.0 inch wrist

Better than expected!

Nothing but great things to say! My colour #8 Horween Chromexcel padded strap is gorgeous & matches beautifully with my SBGW231. The craftsmanship is immaculate and you can really feel the quality and attention to detail. Thanks for your help picking out the right leather and colour for a great match!
