Handcrafted Straps
NATO Strap in Recycled Polyester — Grey with Light Blue Edges
Nylon is not a compromise. It is a choice.
This military strap is made from 100% recycled polyester—a material treated with the same care we reserve for Tuscan leather. The weave is dense, the hand is flat, and it behaves on the wrist like something that doesn't need to show off. The grey comes with blue edges like a marginal note: discreet, yet present.
The 316L stainless steel buckle and loops ensure corrosion resistance without adding weight. The slim 1.5mm thickness is for those who wear tool watches or vintage timepieces with narrow lugs, without sacrificing the strap's character.
Made in Italy.

The joy of little things
Changing your strap should be as simple as changing your shoes. With us, it is.
Every strap has integrated quick-release spring bars: swap it in one gesture, no tools, no risk of scratching the lugs. The same watch shifts mood with the moment.

Milanese Craftsmanship
Every strap is a one-off piece, cut and stitched by hand in our Milan atelier. Saddle stitching gives superior strength, while the edges are finished with seven coats of dye applied by brush, for a longevity that outlasts passing trends.
