Straps and Buckles
Each watch is equipped as standard with a high quality black leather strap and pin buckle (buckle engraved with "René Kriegbaum"). Depending on the model, your watch is fitted with a top quality brand name calf leather strap (grained surface, matte, lightly padded, contrasting stitching) or with a camel leather strap (fine-grained, matte, padded, lightly contrasting stitching). I believe that these straps are best suited to my watches, but can also offer you other options:
Please note that the leather watch straps shown in the photographs are mostly patterned straps.
