I purchased this strap as part of my first ever order with Veblenist. I absolutely love it. It is very well made and provides that vintage vibe I am looking for. Was easy to customize to my exact measurements and options. Overall great experience. I will be back for more, now knowing the quality of the products he puts out. Thanks.
Was looking for a more casual black leather strap and found the balboa - love the unstructured matte look and like that I was able to customize to fit the look I was going for!
This is my second strap from these guys and it is even more impressive than the first. The Balboa is the perfect match for a GMT or field watch. It is classy while still having a somewhat rugged look to it. I ordered it with white stitching and padding for the OEM Longines 39mm Zulu deployment clasp. It fit the clasp perfectly.
This is a great strap, the quality is excellent, and the comfort is unparalleled. The leather is supple and the taper adds that touch of refinement, it looks really nice. The standard size fits my 6.5" wrist on the last hole, with the buckle being perfectly in line with the center of my wrist. I liked it so much I bought 2 more shortly after I received this one, these are worth it.
It’s a nice leather strap. The regular sizing fits my 7ish inch wrist at about midway, leaving the 2 top holes untouched. Ill be purchasing another strap for sure
Bought this so I would have a strap that would fit my 8.5" wrist. Easy to order and it was as close the the strap that came on my Zeineth Pilot 20 as could be expected. 100% pleased with this and it was worth the short wait.
Great quality, color, detail, and feel. Elevates the watch overall. This is 18/16mm, length: short, and with added quick release. The color of the stitch detail has a hint of beige in grey, not as tan as the lum on my dial, but they go well. The leather shows fine grain cracks but not rough at all. The matte look from this detail goes well with the face of the dial and would suit any field/pilot/dive watches with dark face. The only thing I'd change for my next order is the length. I have 6.25in wrist so went for short but I use 4th or 5th hole (5th hole would let my watvh sit on the bone comfortably) where the 6th hole is the longest availble hole. The strap also appears to end too short, not at all visible from the front. I'd go for the medium length next time so that I have some strap left towards the outside of my wrist. Otherwise, I'm definitely getting other straps from Veblenist soon! Thanks!
