Edges
Definition
The edges of a strap are essential to its appearance and function. As a collector and craftsman, I know that well-finished edges can make the difference between a strap that blends perfectly with the watch and one that looks out of place. The choice of materials and finishing techniques, such as hand edge-painting or the use of precision machinery, affects both the durability and the look of the strap. Edges can be rounded, bevelled or squared, each with a different impact on comfort and style. For those who like to personalise, the edges offer an opportunity to add unique details. On Milano Straps straps, careful attention to the edges is essential to ensure a high-quality product. Discover the edge options on our straps, available in various sizes and materials.

Frequently asked questions
What is Edges?
The edges of a strap are essential to its appearance and function. Also known as margins, contours, finishes.
Why choose Edges for a Milano Straps strap?
Because I only select leathers that are sourced and hand-finished: they feel soft against the skin, resist sweat and develop an elegant patina with use.
How do I match Edges to my watch?
I match it to vintage and contemporary cases by choosing the right thickness and a hypoallergenic lining to respect the character of the timepiece.
