Handcrafted Straps
NATO Single Pass Military Green Strap — Recycled Polyester
Military green isn't meant to please everyone. It's a deliberate choice, for those who know what they're wearing on their wrist and why.
This single pass strap is made from 100% recycled polyester yarn — a material that embodies a conscious choice without compromising on durability. The fabric is compact, flat, and resistant. No bulkiness under the watch case, no dangling tail: the strap closes back on itself, the sliding keeper holds the excess, and the wrist remains clean.
Unlike traditional NATO straps, the single pass doesn't layer fabric under the watch case: the watch stays low on the wrist, the buckle remains centered on the underside, and comfort is immediate. And if one of the spring bars were to fail, the single-piece construction still keeps the timepiece on the wrist — a technical detail that discerning collectors know well.
Buckle and loops made of 316L stainless steel: the same alloy used in watchmaking for its corrosion resistance. 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.
