Concentration

Hockey - one of the greatest sports in my opinion. I spend a lot of time thinking of how should look strap made in hockey character. Here you can see final result. Crossed lines are the net, well it required a lot of concentration to make it parallel and preserve right angles, fortunately result is stunning. At the end of a strap you have hockey puck speeding like a bullet through the net. Loose keeper is really special one, you have here "5" also on the left and right side, just as hockey players have number also on arms. To complete it I decided to add Defender buckle which shape reminds me helmet. Thanks for reading and take care!

Sailor - probably first strap on the world made in that style

I love to sail, and probably without that passion I would never make that one. You can use it both with shackle and rope. It takes some time at beginning to do put watch on your wrist, but when you figure out how to it is very easy. No more need to use buckle, keeper and so forth. Very convenient, extremely unique and moreover incredibly safe. Of course in case of using rope you should know some knots:) I suppose that is first strap ever made in that style, if I am wrong, please let me know.  Stylized for top deck of wood sail boat. Thank you for reading! Take care.

Commando

That is a real tough one. Watch with Commando strap is completely different. Looks really stunning. I was considering stitching, however not to break the unique pattern I decided only to stitch keeper with an "x". Wonder what do you think, personally I like it very much. Thanks for reading!

Raven

One leather layer, no stitching. I found it very comfortable and have a lot of enjoyment from it. Moreover   you can easily wear it with almost everything, truly universal strap. Thanks for reading!

Viva Italia strap

Have you ever been to Italy? I will never forget Venice, Rome, and the hot water at Tyrrhenian Sea in Sperlonga. Certainly worth visiting country. Please welcome Viva Italia strap.

Tough one

Combination of two dark colors makes strap really tough, here very dark brown and black thread works perfect, also very suitable to wear with black dial watch and almost every outfit. Thanks for reading!

True elegance

After finishing this one I thought that you can never have to much brown straps with white stitching, do not you? Thanks for reading!

Pure classic, pure nature, the Leader strap

Did you ever ask yourself how most classical strap should look like? I did, and that is how do I see it. Natural leather color impregnated with purely nature oils and other stuff, stitched with white thread makes truly elegant combination. Many years ago when I began strapmaking, the first strap I created was similar to it. So, here it is - Leader. Thanks for reading my dear friend!

Hidden beauty

Dear friends, it has been long time since I updated my last work, so I managed to take few pictures, and write that post. I believe that beauty is hidden in details and there what you do not see at a first glance, thats why I named that strap Hidden. On the first picture it may look like a casual, elegant strap, but when you look closer you can see that it has symmetrical stitches - 32 on the left side, 32 on the right side (on the longer part of the strap), and 15 left/right (on the shorter part), moreover what you would expect on the back side? same as on the top? not this time, here you have unique finish, which is as well elegant as the top side. Thanks for reading!

Way (of life) watch strap

It is a pleasure to have possibility to share with you this strap which I'm very proud of. I called it Way - like way of life. It took me a lot of hours to think of it, design, project, create but I have no doubt every second was worth it, and by the way that was really great time for me. Thanks for watching, feel free to contact me. See you soon:)

Hot, Hotter, Lava II

Here it is, Lava strap with red stitching and key fob. I always knew that black & red works great. Thanks for watching:)

Lucky 7

Hi friends, hope all is well. Finally I managed to find some time and take some photos of new Moon Dust & Sandstorm buckles, so I'm sharing them with you. Personally I like them a lot, hope you too! Thanks for reading, watching and writing:)

Oracle.

I learned a lot making that strap. Making it look symmetrically was huge effort. In strap making even 1mm may make meaningful difference. Maybe you are wondering does general stitch is made with one piece of thread? Answer is yes, well actually ~250cm thread was used to stitch it, of course overall thread length used to stitch was longer. Oracle is certainly the biggest and the most time consuming strap I was working on so far. Thanks for reading!

Hydra

Did you ever think of wearing watch with buckle on the same wrist side?

I did. So I begin asking myself how can I achieve that and soon I came with an answer. Below you can see effects.

Yes, I'm very proud of Hydra:)

Lava - black strap with orange stitching.

Black strap with orange stitching seem to be a great combo.

I named it Lava as it came first to my mind, and I think thats a good name for that strap. Personally I like it very much.

Titan's Might

Piece of cake:)

Oath strap

Another one:)

Making straps is really time consuming.

Hehe, updating pictures, either:)

Eclipse

Well, the first eclipse of the strap in history :)

Hero - stitchless strap

On the first picture it may seem that it is Hero is stitched strap.

On the second one you can see how it really looks. Do not know how about you, but I like it a lot!
Thanks again for watching.

Grizzly

I was thinking about that kind of strap some time ago and finally I created it with engraved grizzly paw.

Arrow of Destiny

Working on those round cut-out's was pretty time consuming, however in my opinion worth the final effect.

Gravitation

Another strap. I also added gallery/slideshow. To say few words about strap.

Imagine that the little hole is a planet, and your watch is a star.

Now you know why I named it Gravitation.

Abyss strap

As I mentioned, new straps are going to see the sunlight. Today I managed to update Abyss strap. I like it a lot, hope you too! Thanks for watching and have a great day!

Some piece of news

Dear friends, today I have finished last strap from the 11th new ones!!

That was a lot of enjoyable hours, thinking, designing, creating, and making thoughts come true.

What to say - I love them! they are special to me in every aspect.

I need to borrow camera to take some shots so I will update photos soon.

You can expect innovative ideas e.g. strap where buckle is situated next to your watch on the front side of your wrist instead of backside:)

Moreover I have finished another Moon Dust buckle.

Below picture taken by... cellphone. I think thats pretty good shot.

Moon Dust - picture

Moon Dust buckle and PAM112. New buckles.

I like this picture a lot, so I decided to share it with you.

I have also made two new buckles. Here I have attached one, the rest are in the links below Moon Dust picture.

Buckles

Finally I have finished my buckles. However the basic shape is machine cut, they are 100% finished by hands using files, sandpaper and vice, NO grinders and other electric tools. Actually I have not ever seen truly handmade buckles. Even though they are 5mm thick! and are not bent, they fit as well good or even better than bent ones, as they are hand filed on the back side - you can see it on the 3rd picture, actually I have a free workout for myself while doing that:)

I use my buckles daily, and to be honest I cant imagine using any others.

From the left:

Golem Footprint, Moon Dust, Be the King, Lord of Steel, Turtle Shell, Individualist, Harpoon, Camel, Eagle's Claw, Boss.

This is how they were looking before hand work.

Below links to pictures of each buckle:

Bravery

According to past times I have created Bravery strap. It comes with stitched Maltese cross on loose keeper, which symbolizes 8 points of courage. Strap is actually a little bit longer, as shield makes wrist circumference larger. To sum up it is extra comfortable and unique strap with a knight character.

Freedom

To me eagles are so stunning, proud birds, beautiful and free while flying. I was so excited about them that I decided to make Freedom strap. You can see on the picture eagle head - eye and beak, stitching similar to wings. It is definitely one of my favorite straps.

Feng Shui, Wu Xing and the Fire element

Feng Shui uses the theory of Wu Xing - the five elements theory. This strap represents the Fire element. Just to have a choice which one to use it comes with two loose keepers with characteristic fire design, also both with flame stitched. I had a really great time making it.

Thanks for watching, enjoy:)
