Hot stamped logo on the strap tail. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe selected leather from renown Wickett \u0026amp; Craig makers in Pennsylvania. This Wickett \u0026amp; Craig leather is traditionally used for saddles, holsters and sheaths. Skirting leather is painstakingly tanned and drum dyed by hand. These hides boasts a subtle waxy finish from the special treatment. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis version is a thinner variant of our most recent straps for easier installation and lighter feeling on the wrist. This leather is stiffer and offers reduced stretch compared to other softer leathers such as the Horween we've used in the past.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Color.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Clay color is so close to the leather strap I used originally and many of you asked for, but we weren't able to source at the time. But now with the Wickett \u0026amp; Craig, this turned out so much better. The skirting leather matures nicely and develops a personalized patina based on how often you rock it. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlack. Pitch black. Black stitching. That is all.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Rust color in particular portrays a wonderful character that deepens the leather feel when worn and bent. The distressed nature of this oiled latigo leather is a result of Wickett \u0026amp; Craig's special treatment:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003e\"Oiled Latigo is hot dipped in a special mix of oils, waxes and tallows.

This moves the titanium hardware closer to the case, so it sits on the outside of the wrist for improved comfort and titanium visibility, because who wants to hide their hardware on the bottom of their wrist? \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe single pass is a hybrid that optimizes the benefits of the G10\/NATO with a two-piece. The main benefit of a single pass is that if the spring bar on your watch case lug fails, the watch will stay fixed to your wrist because the strap won't fail.
