Very, very impressive! A creative way to combine something you love with learning and a way to help others through good causes. I true that trick!

Hi Duracuir1,
No1 would suit a 60's watch I have been looking for a strap for very well. If you would post to Australia, I would be happy to pay your costs.
This is a great offer.
Thanks
LuckyLes

Wow - that is an interesting Rolex. Is it 1930's?

Dang. Only discovered this thread today. Count me in for next time, Steve! Your work is terrific. And there are a lot of courses that deserve donations!

perfection is for computers. This is craftsmanship.....so really anything coming out of it will be perfect in context.

Great work!!

I was fortunate to receive this very nice single-pass strap from Steve. It presents as black, but it's actually a nice shade of dark green. This one is thin and really comfortable to wear. I had been looking for a single-pass at ~18mm and, honestly, the offerings have been rather slim. I don't think I've seen any with this nice sort of stitching.

Thanks again, Steve -- this one is great! Not that I have a say, but I would advocate for continuing to explore this sort of style.

A donation has been made to Nova Ukraine for their current humanitarian efforts.

Beautiful, I love the “imperfections”. Any chance you can ship it worldwide (to Israel)? Obviously willing to pay for shipping and the strap

Although I have shown my @Duracuir1 fine leather goods pouch prior here it is again. A buddy of mine is big into seikos and like many of us has his eyes on watches that may be (for the moment) out of reach. Anyway lately he has been considering getting a KS which is quite doable for him (originally it was a GS) so I told him I’d lend him my KS so he could see what he thought. I presented it as you see here with the @Duracuir1 fine leather goods watch holder. He was so impressed with the case let alone the watch he handed it back told me he didn’t feel right taking it. I tried telling him I just did volunteer work and a donation for the case and a KS isn’t a Rolex it’s not that big a deal plus I drove 30 miles to lend it to him but he refused to take it. Oh well I tried he’s my buddy he is welcome to it anytime I guess I’ll wear my KS tomorrow it’s been a while.

Just coming across this thread now. All of the straps are great but I gotta say I really dig the reused baseball hides for straps. Very cool concept and finished product!

I stumbled upon this…

So I checked a bit more and there are numerous events that raise awareness or funds with the use of Pink.

I made these two straps quite a while ago. Not my best work, but if you want to wear pink…

I have two straps. The one with pink stitching is 18 mm while the other one - silver stitching - is a 20 mm.

Send me a PM. Once you get your strap and fit it to a watch, post a pic on this thread.

As always, if you are inspired to make a donation to the charity of your choice, or want to support a thread by @Vercingetorix it is entirely your choice.

The straps… even though I made them a long time ago, I had not punched the holes. Done!

I count myself among the fortunate because none of the women in my life who have had breast cancer have died from it. Wore a pink t-shirt to dinner on Tuesday with one of them.

Check it out!!

Donating to East Of The River Mutual Aid Fund!

I haven’t worn this strap much, and it l’s a shame to just have it sitting in a drawer. So, I would like to pass it on to someone who will be able to give it more wrist time.

In the spirit of the thread, I’ll cover shipping in the US and you make a donation of an amount and org of your choosing.

Shoot me a DM to claim, and much thanks to @Duracuir1
