Horween No. 8. Made on demand and shipped from Singapore. Wish I'd spec'ed it a bit longer because of the thickness but it works well enough. After wearing it a while it should stretch a bit.

Very nice -- and made me realize that I haven't actually seen many (any?) pix of Trilogies on black straps, mainly browns. Yours really brings out the darker tones of the dial.

 

It's not black. No 8 is a dark burgundy color.

Of course -- my mistake. I associate No. 8 with shell cordovan exclusively, but of course it's a Horween colour.

 

It’s actually not common to see shell straps padded these days, I may have to check one of these out.

 

Only lasted for an hour and I *had* to put the bracelet back on!

Lol. It’s best with its bracelet
