Selected leathers
Louisiana alligator leather doesn't lie. Each scale tells a tanning process that goes through Tuscany before reaching the lugs of your Patek Philippe — and it shows, in the opaque texture of the matte finish, in the balance between formal rigor and pliability on the wrist.
The brown chosen here is not neutral: it is a shade that dialogues with champagne dials, with original crocodile straps, with rose gold. It doesn't replace the factory strap — it offers an alternative with a precise character. The matte finish, unlike the glossy one, absorbs light instead of reflecting it. More discreet, more durable in everyday appearance.
Each piece is hand-stitched in a single workshop. The variable thickness structure — higher under the watch, thinner towards the buckle — follows the natural geometry of the wrist. The result is a profile that doesn't force, doesn't thicken, doesn't impose itself.
A note on the uniqueness of the material: alligator leather presents natural variations in color and texture from piece to piece. No two scales are identical. This is why this strap cannot be replicated with millimeter precision — and it shouldn't be.

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
Is this strap suitable for my Patek Philippe?
The lugs measure 26mm. That's the size I designed it for. At the buckle it tapers to 18mm, as the geometry of the wrist requires.
What thickness is it under the watch?
4mm where the case rests. It tapers to 2mm towards the buckle. That's not by chance: this way the strap follows the wrist without weighing it down.
Is it hand-stitched?
Yes, hand-stitched in a single workshop. I work it this way from start to finish.
Will my strap be identical to the one in the photo?
No, and let me explain why. Louisiana alligator leather varies from piece to piece, scale by scale. No two are identical. This is part of the material, not a flaw.
Why a matte finish instead of a glossy one?
Matte absorbs light rather than reflecting it. In daily use it stays more discreet and holds up better over time compared to glossy. It's a deliberate choice, not a compromise.
