Leather Watch Straps for Seiko Mod Builds
A leather watch strap takes a build from tool watch to dress watch in a single swap. Most of the straps here come with quick-release spring bars already fitted, so changing one needs no tools. The range covers genuine cowhide in several styles, Saffiano and Epsom leather, and a sailcloth strap.
Leather Types & Colors
The Stitched, Pebbled and Classic straps are genuine cowhide, and the Stitched Suede is cowhide with a suede finish. The Stitched strap comes in black, dark blue, brown and light brown; the Stitched Suede in black, dark blue and brown; the Pebbled in black, blue, dark blue, brown, dark brown, red and white; and the Classic in black and brown. Saffiano leather has a cross-hatch pattern pressed into its surface, which helps it resist scratches, and the fully stitched Saffiano strap comes in black, gray, red, orange and brown. The Epsom strap, with its fine-grain embossed texture, comes in black, and the 3.5mm Sailcloth strap in black and gray.
Sizes & Fit
The Stitched, Stitched Suede, Classic and Sailcloth straps come in 20mm and 22mm lug widths, the Saffiano and Epsom in 18mm, 20mm and 22mm, and the Pebbled in 16mm, 20mm and 22mm. Each one tapers toward the buckle — 22mm to 20mm, 20mm to 18mm, 18mm to 16mm, and 16mm to 13mm. The 22mm Cowhide Leather Strap is cut for the SKX007 Square Case: 22mm at the lugs and 26mm across the top, tapering to 20mm, in black with a steel or black buckle, or brown with a rose gold or gold buckle. For other looks, see the FKM rubber straps, the nylon straps or a metal bracelet for your Seiko mod.
Frequently Asked Questions
What lug width do I need?
Go by your case, not the watch model. These straps come in 16mm, 18mm, 20mm and 22mm, and each one fits a case with that width between its lugs. Cases built on the same model can differ — the SKX007 replacement cases have 22mm lugs, while the SKX007 MM, 62mas and 6105 conversion cases have 20mm — so check the lug width of your case before ordering.
What's the difference between the leather types?
The Stitched, Pebbled and Classic straps are genuine cowhide, and the Stitched Suede is cowhide with a suede finish. Saffiano has a cross-hatch pattern pressed into the leather, which helps it resist scratches. Epsom has a fine-grain embossed texture that is lightweight, scratch-resistant and water-resistant. The Sailcloth strap is 3.5mm thick.
Do the straps come with spring bars?
The Stitched, Stitched Suede, Pebbled, Classic, Saffiano, Epsom and Sailcloth straps all come with quick-release spring bars already fitted, so the strap comes off and goes on without tools.
