Description: Up for sale is a handmade 26mm rolled canvas watch strap made by me, Mott Straps. The canvas used for this strap is from a vintage Air Force duffel bag. The US Air Force used to issue blue duffel bags, but now issue OD Green bags. Blue AF bags are much more rare than OD green canvas bags. The strap measures 26mm with no taper, 81 mm x 130 mm and ~4.0 mm thick. The strap was saddle stitched with yellow Tiger thread - the best waxed polyester thread in the business. The strap will come with a large floating canvas keeper with my Dos Equis (Double X) stitch on top. I find that for canvas straps, having the stitch on top of the keeper is much more comfortable. Other strap makers make a butt-stitch and have to add a crazy amount of stitching to keep the keeper together. Another difference on my canvas straps is that I skive (thin) the canvas where it meets the buckle end, on the underside of the strap. Most canvas straps are just cut and glued at that point. I find that skiving the canvas reduces the bulk near the buckle. Holes for the strap start at 50mm from the lug end. More holes can be punched upon request. The strap will include a custom Mott stainless steel Pre-V style screw-in buckle. I can swap out the steel buckle for a bronze buckle at no charge. Unless specified when purchased, the strap will ship with the steel buckle as shown. Let me know if you have any questions before purchasing. If you're looking for a different size and/or thread combination, please reach out for a custom order.
