Selected leathers
The broad-snouted caiman (Caiman latirostris) lives in the wetlands of South America — freshwater swamps, mangroves, and still or slow-moving waters in Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay, and Bolivia. Its hide carries that nature with it: an irregular, lively texture, with a scaling that replicates neither the Nile alligator nor the Asian crocodile. It has a distinct character.
The matte red is a deliberate choice. It doesn't seek the brilliance of lacquer, it doesn't want to attract light — it absorbs it. On the wrist, against any dark or white dial, it creates a contrast that speaks for itself. The ecru thread stitching tightens each stitch by hand, one by one, following the profile of the scales without forcing them.
A strap like this is not neutral. It's a statement of taste made in a hushed tone, in the choice of material and color — not in volume.

Domande Frequenti
What sizes are available?
Three: 20mm x 16mm, 21mm x 16mm and 22mm x 18mm. The size refers to the lug width, then the strap tapers towards the buckle.
Does the ecru thread always stay this light?
No. Over time it develops a patina, marked by dust and sweat. This is normal and part of the strap's character.
Why does the thickness change from one side to the other?
At the case side it is 4mm, then it tapers down to 2.5mm at the buckle side. This allows the strap to sit better on the wrist and close without bulking under the buckle.
Is the colour I see in the photo exactly what I will receive?
Not exactly. Each caiman skin is unique, with tone and scale pattern varying from piece to piece. This is not a flaw, it is the nature of the leather.
Is it hand-stitched?
Yes, this strap is hand-stitched. Each stitch tightens the ecru thread following the profile of the scales, one at a time.
