Vintage Rolex, new leather
I had been looking for a source of great leather watch bands for a while now. I wanted something that had that vintage look and feel but was new.
I found a maker finally and I just wanted to show off my 4647 wearing her new leather!   Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using Tapatalk |

I have bought a few nice ones off of Etsy too but I ran into the problem that most of the makers could not make a 17mm band for bubblebacks and other vintage like this 4647.

One great resource is Myron at Rover Haven straps. Lovely guy who does great work at very reasonable prices. Also, you can customize to whatever degree you want with his Horween cordovan leather strap material.
