Suede is not the most obvious choice. It is the most personal one.

Violet, in this vintage version, doesn't seek immediate approval — it gains it over time, on the wrist, as the light changes. The suede surface absorbs light instead of reflecting it: the effect is soft, almost tactile even from a distance. A precise, recognizable character, that stands out without shouting.

The craftsmanship follows the standards of the Milanese atelier: selected leather, refined interior finish, calibrated thickness to fit comfortably within the lugs without forcing. At 2.5mm, it lies flat on the wrist, adapts to standard buckles, and doesn't add bulk even to the slimmest profiles.

Suitable for sports watches as well as dress watches, it works with almost everything — but performs best where color has room to breathe. Each leather has its own texture, each piece is slightly different from the next. This is not a defect: it is the nature of suede.

I really like the soft supple suede and purple goes well w my purple dials. Only reason I gave it a 4 is because I had no choice but to opt for gold buckle as stainless steel and black were not available.

Frequently asked questions

What sizes are available?

I have five widths in stock: 18mm, 19mm, 20mm, 22mm and 24mm, with the corresponding lug width of 16mm, 16mm, 16mm, 18mm and 20mm. Let me know your watch's lug width and we'll find the right one for you.

Does it suit a sports watch or only a dress watch?

It works well on both. The 2.5mm thickness stays flat on the wrist and doesn't overwhelm slimmer profiles, so it suits sporty cases as well as more elegant models.

Will the purple colour be exactly the same as in the photo?

Not exactly the same. Suede is a natural material, and each piece has its own texture: slightly different shades from one piece to another are part of the nature of this leather.

How long is it?

115mm on the long side, 75mm on the short side. These measurements are the same for every width available for sale.

Can the suede be worn wet, or should it be kept dry?

Suede is delicate with water, so it's best not to get it wet. If you're looking for a strap you can wear without worry, let me know: I have references in Newlife recycled polyester designed just for that, but this suede model is not among them.
