Inspired by our Ensign vintage style watches. Our Ensign Strap Showcase features a selection of some of our Geckota straps that embody the sophistication that goes with classic watches, so you can have that vintage look and feel from a durable watch strap.

Our strap collection features a range of leather textures and finishes, as well as stitching techniques to suit any vintage timepiece. All our Geckota leather straps also benefit from polished stainless-steel buckles, with quick-release spring bars for hassle-free fitting.

Haswell Oiled Leather Handmade Watch Strap

HASWELL OILED LEATHER HANDMADE WATCH STRAP

Handmade with care by our partner’s Spanish workshop, the Haswell gives a deluxe look to any vintage watch. The Haswell is made from top grain calf leather with an oiled finish and black painted edges, that looks and feels luxurious. Lined with French tanned anti-sweat leather, the strap is comfortable and won’t discolour with prolonged wear. This vintage style strap stands out thanks to the contrasting stitching that follows the entire length of the strap.


Stanway Vintage V-Stich Suede Watch Strap

Stanway Vintage V-Stich Suede Strap

Our soft and smooth Stanway straps are made from genuine Italian suede leather, tanned by a tannery located in the heart of Tuscany. The process of crafting our suede straps makes them beautifully soft, and benefit from a French calf-leather lining that makes them comfortable to wear. The Stanway also features a contrasting stitch, for an elegant look that goes well with any vintage timepiece.

Clanville Vintage Horween Chromexcel Watch Strap

Clanville Vintage Horween Chromexcel

The Haswell is handmade from Horween Chromexcel leather from Chicago, USA, who have been tanning and producing high-quality leather pieces for over 100 years. This leather is very durable and well-known for how it ages to create a beautiful, distressed look over time. The strap has been fitted with a premium calf-leather lining provided by a tannery in France and contrasted stitching, giving the Haswell the comfort and luxurious look to compliment your vintage watch.
