Box-stitched old strap style that collectors really love. This Genuine Pigskin vintage watch band has that perfect color and texture, and is an especially early style to find as New Old Stock from the 1940s/1950s. Has some marks, color variations and imperfections that just add to its vintage appeal. In the scarce 15.5mm ends width size to fit those early watches. With full stitching to be durable. Has the colored edges that were the style at the time.

Shown with its original yellow gold-color buckle or you can ask for a steel buckle that will be a different style.

We always recommend with early leather bands like this that you treat it with leather conditioner or mink oil before wearing the strap to keep it supple and strong.

The strap measures 7 1/2 inches long (18.8cm) placed end to end, not including the buckle. Metric measurements of the two individual pieces are 115/73mm. Thickness is 2.4mm where the band meets the watch and 2.4mm at the tail end. Buckle end opening is 16mm if you have a signed buckle for this band or if you want to purchase an upgraded vintage watch buckle from our Buckles Section with more than 200 choices.
