Historic
straps are wonderful things; windows into our stylistic past, enlightening and
reassuring us. Often these older pieces are completely serviceable, providing
both utility and artistic inspiration. However, some pieces simply succumb to
the ravages of age and heavy use. Wire lug
“wristlet” watches are back in a big way; in fact, they’ve remained a favorite
among classic timepiece collectors since wristlet watches were created. The
venerable Hirsch family of
We’re fortunate
to offer a selection of original, new-old stock “Hirsch” open-ended watch
straps from the '90s or so specifically to serve a horological community still
in love with wire-lug pieces.
This offering a Vintage Hirsch "Robert" Black Modele Depose Leather 20mm Open-Ended Watch Strap. This 20mm strap tapers down to a 14mm buckle size. Measurements are approx. 3 inches on buckle side and approx. 4 1/2 inches on the tongue side.
Each end of the strap has glue that one can activate with acetone (nail-polish remover). Occasionally we still install such straps at the client’s request; when we do we augment the original glue with our own contact cement. However, the original glue on these pieces holds for many who still use it by activating both sides, then clamping them together.
We hope this
strap fits your needs and look forward to the possibility of welcoming you as a
client!
