Handcrafted Straps
NATO Strap in Recycled Newlife® — Grey with Light Blue Stitching
100% recycled polyester, light blue stitching on a grey background. A combination that doesn't seek attention — but gets it.
The recycled nylon military strap was born from a precise idea: to build something durable without consuming more than necessary. The material comes from regenerated polyester, processed in Italy with the same care given to leather straps. The result is a compact fabric, resistant to daily wear and tear, which brings an authentic military texture to the wrist, lightened by the chromatic detail of the light blue stitching — discreet, not decorative.
The 316L stainless steel buckle and rings complete the structure: no risk of oxidation, no weakening over time. A strap designed for those who use their watch, not just those who look at it.

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.
