17mm Leather Watch Bands & Straps

17mm watch straps in Horween leather or alligator, cut 17/16mm or 17/14mm, for the cases most shops round away to 18.

Both cuts taper. Nine leathers, three lengths or a custom one, made to order in our California workshop.

17mm Leather Watch Bands & Straps

Both cuts taper

Neither cut here is straight: 17/16mm holds almost the full width to your wrist, and 17/14mm tapers harder for a more traditional line. The 16mm end takes the matte stainless and Pre-V frames; the 14mm end takes neither.

17/14mm tapers to a 14mm buckle, and every buckle but the Pre-V Stainless, Pre-V Black and Matte Stainless
17/16mm tapers to a 16mm buckle, and every buckle we make

A width most shops round away

17mm is the lug width you're most often told to treat as 18mm. It isn't one. A strap a millimeter too wide won't go between the lugs, and a millimeter narrow moves against them. Measure the gap, send us the number with the model, and everything in the grid above is made to it.

Not quite 17mm? We make 16mm straps and 18mm straps too, so there's no need to force a fit.

Length and leather

Measure the strap you wear now, buckle fold to the hole you actually use, and give us that. Three lengths, Short (105/65mm) to Long (125/85mm), or a custom one, and the sizing guide helps you pick. Every leather we make is cut to any width: shell cordovan, the Classic and Vintage series, lined or unlined.
