Selected leathers
The matte alligator has a different personality from the glossy. It doesn't seek light — it absorbs it. The dark grey matte carries a sobriety that doesn't compromise on character: it's the choice for those who know the difference between ostentation and quality.
Each section of the strap is crafted from selected alligator leather, processed in Italy with tanning and a matte finish that enhances the natural texture of the scales. The surface doesn't reflect, it speaks for itself — with the precise geometry that only true alligator can offer.
The tapered thickness ensures comfort on the wrist and smooth sliding into the buckle: 3.5mm at the lug, 2.5mm at the clasp. It's imperceptible. And that, in a watch strap, is the highest compliment.
It naturally pairs with dress watches and sporty chronographs with a clean dial. The dark grey matte doesn't impose — it complements.

Patina is the signature of time.
Alligator doesn't wear down: it matures. The first months on the wrist soften its flank, light darkens the ridges just slightly, and the colour deepens. We treat it with neutral oils, no varnish to smother the grain: what you take home isn't finished, it's only beginning.

Frequently asked questions
What sizes are available for this strap?
I have five lug widths available: 18mm, 19mm, 20mm, 21mm and 22mm at the lug. The buckle width varies accordingly, from 16mm to 20mm. Let me know your watch and I'll indicate the right size for you.
How thick is it at the buckle?
The thickness tapers: 3.5mm at the lug, 2.5mm at the buckle. It decreases gradually, so it slides smoothly through the buckle without weighing down the wrist.
What type of watch does it suit?
It works well both on a dress watch and on a chronograph with a sober dial. The matte dark grey is discreet, it doesn't impose character but complements it.
Does the matte alligator change tone over time or between pieces?
Yes, and it's not a flaw. Alligator leather is a natural material: slight tone variations between one piece and another are part of the authenticity of the item.
How should I store it?
Away from excessive humidity, in a cool, dry place. The strap is crafted in Italy with a matte finish, and this care keeps the scale pattern intact.
