JAPANESE COWHIDE LEATHER STRAP (dark brown)
Couldn't load pickup availability
Made with domestically produced glossy cowhide steer. Oil leather. It goes perfectly with vintage watches, and its semi-gloss finish makes it the perfect match for dress watches. The stitches are sewn using thin threads at extremely fine pitches to reproduce the surrounding stitches, unrivaled finish, and vintage details. The edges are polished with wax and have excellent taste and durability. It still has a vintage feel to it, but it's the best leather belt that gets better the more you use it. The stitching is the same color and is a little lighter than the leather.
We also have open-end straps made of the same material.
For the 18mm mounting width, three buckle widths are available: 16mm, 15mm, and 14mm. 14mm is a perfect match for Patek Philippe etc. 15mm can be attached to domestic watches such as SEIKO and CITIZEN, as well as IWC watches for Japan.
*The color and texture of the leather may differ slightly depending on the lot.
*This leather has not been completely color-fastened to maintain its good texture. Please note that the color may fade due to sweat or rain. Be especially careful when wearing white clothing.

This is my third purchase of JAPANESE COWHIDE.
The dark brown color blends well with vintage watches, and the winding feel was excellent.
First impression; clearly better quality than what I've experienced from European "premium" brands. Fast and trackable shipping. Fair price. The taper is slightly more noticeable than i anticipated, which leads to it looking a bit dressier/daintier than i expected, but that is a nitpick.
This strap exceeded my expectations. The quality of leather and build was exceptional for its price Soft, supple and great depth of color. recommended!
Thank you so much for your review. We are glad to hear that. Please enjoy!
Since the old Seiko watches have small buckles, it was hard to find anything I wanted, but I found this one here and bought it, which was great.
I also think that people will want the same thing, so I hope that they continue to release the same model in the future.
Thank you for your comment. As the strap is made in Japan, we will continue to strive to make it enjoyable for those who own Japanese watches such as old Seiko watches. Thank you for your continued support.
It's hard to find a strap that matches the look of the Zenith Pilot (Big Date Special) and is the right size (apart from the original), but this strap not only looks great, but is also of good quality and comfortable to wear, making it a great value for the money.
I was also attracted to the Virgilio VIVIDO Shoulder leather strap (Gray) in terms of material, but since it was only available in sizes up to 20/16mm, I chose this COWHIDE (Dark Brown) 21/18mm. If I were to be greedy, I would have preferred a little more thickness (3-3.2mm?) on the watch (lug) side to give it a more striking presence.
Thank you for your comment. Thank you for matching it so well with your Zenith. We would like to expand our lineup to include a wider range of sizes and materials, so we look forward to your continued support.
