Thank you so much Steve, I will be making a donation to a charity called freewheelers which is one that was close to my best friends heart who is sadly no longer with us.
Straggler... last year I made straps for @JwRosenthal with an old women’s leather wallet. Prior to making these straps I only made them for my jeweller, who is a very large man. Turns out that my straps were too long. (Thanks for pointing that out JW!). I had made this one as an extra and forgot about it. Well @Bill Sohne is able to give it a home. This one, unlike the soft smooth baseball glove straps, will feel like cardboard until broken in. It’s got a nice classic look though.
Many thanks, Steve. It turned out to be a perfect fit for one of my watches with 21mm lug spacing! Donation made to the Wilderness Society.
I am relieved to see that one of the straps has finally arrived. Great cause! Nice watch! Trying NATO with pig skin for the first time. Quicker to make than regular straps, but since it’s my first one I am spending a lot of time measuring, calculating, and trying to figure out how it will fit. I already see flaws in this one. It is not done yet.,,
