### d8b straps ### 100% Handmade Straps Made With a Lot of Passion + Unusual Buckles
Watch lovers, some of you probably know me. For those who do not, I will introduce myself. My name is Daniel and I'm keen on watches, sailing, IT, cars ... I also love to make straps, of course I owe that to watches. I would like to share with you some of them.
About my d8b straps: They are truly 100% handmade and designed by me. I do not use any kind of patterns etc, sewing, cutting, polishing, everything is done by my own hands. I do not want to produce very high quality straps only. My vision is to make straps with character, soul, something you know what it is but you can not describe it with one simple word, and I hope to achieve it. About my d8b buckles: Basic shape is machine cut, however they are 100% finished by hands using files, sandpaper and vice, NO grinders and other electric tools. Actually I have not ever seen truly handmade buckles. Even though they are 5mm thick! and are not bent, they fit as well good or even better than bent ones, as they are hand filed on the back side - you can see it somewhere below, actually I have a free workout for myself while doing that:) Mind of Steel Length: 132/85 mm Width: 22 mm Thickness: +/- 5mm Signed on the back side. Dyed with old traditional methods. Stitched 'M' (first letter of Mind of Steel) on the loose keeper. Other picture in the link: picture1 Engineer Programmers and other people who are kind of IT would love it. Length:135/84 mm Width: 24 mm Thickness: +/- 4 mm Signed on the back side. Other picture + explanation of the binary from the strap in the link below: picture1 Moon Collector One of my favorite straps that truly stimulates imagination. It was a huge pleasure for me to put idea from my mind into reality. Length: 132/80 mm Width: 24 mm Thickness: +/- 5 mm Signed on the back side. Stitched moon on the loose keeper. Other picture in the link: picture1 Barbarossa Now something for people who love water. Barbarossa is actually cut along the edge (you can see it on the picture), jus like a ripped sail, and stitched using method which is used to repair ripped sails. Length:132/85 mm Width: 26 mm Thickness: +/- 5 mm Signed on the back side. Synergy Truly elegant strap. Length: 133/86 mm Width: 24 mm Thickness: +/- 5 mm Signed on the back side. Other picture in the link: picture1 Ace of Spades Not only for gamblers. Length: 130/85 mm Width: 24 mm Thickness: +/- 5 mm Signed on the back side. Other picture in the link: picture1 Wu Xing - Fire Feng Shui uses the theory of Wu Xing - the five elements theory. This strap represents the Fire element. Length: 130/86 mm Width: 24 mm Thickness: +/- 4.5 mm Signed on the back side. Comes with two loose keepers with characteristic fire design, also both with flame stitched. Other picture in the link: picture1 Freedom For those who would love to fly. On the picture you can see eagle head - eye and beak, stitching similar to wings shape. Length: 132/85 mm Width: 24 mm Thickness: +/- 5 mm Signed on the back side. Links to other pictures: picture1 picture2 Bravery For brave. Both watch and your wrist with this strap look amazing. Length: 141/85 mm (it has to be longer as shield enlarges your wrist) Width: 24 mm Thickness: +/- 5 mm, shield +/- 4 mm Signed on the back side. Stitched Maltese cross on loose keeper which symbolizes 8 points of courage. PAM111 and watches with length between the lug holes 50 mm or shorter will fit on shield. This is how buckles were looking after cutting. This is how they look after hand work. Golem Footprint Size: 24 mm Thickness: 5 mm Material: stainless steel Moon Dust Size: 24 mm Thickness: 5 mm Material: stainless steel Be the King Size: 24 mm Thickness: 5 mm Material: stainless steel Lord of Steel Size: 24 mm Thickness: 5 mm Material: stainless steel Turtle Shell Size: 24 mm Thickness: 5 mm Material: stainless steel Individualist Size: 24 mm Thickness: 5 mm Material: stainless steel Harpoon Size: 24 mm Thickness: 5 mm Material: stainless steel Camel Size: 24 mm Thickness: 5 mm Material: stainless steel Eagle's Claw Size: 24 mm Thickness: 5 mm Material: stainless steel Boss Size: 26 mm Thickness: 5 mm Material: stainless steel The back sides, thanks to filed back, they fit on a strap as well as bent ones or even better. Together. My suggestions about which buckle with which strap would work great: Engineer - Individualist buckle suggested Moon Collector - Moon Dust buckle suggested Barbarossa - Boss buckle suggested Synergy - Camel/Harpoon buckle suggested Ace of Spades - Golem Footprint suggested Wu Xing - Fire - Turtle Shell buckle suggested Freedom - Eagle's Claw buckle suggested Bravery - Lord of Steel/Be the King buckle suggested Prices: Worldwide shipping cost included. Payment via Paypal Straps: Mind of Steel : 240$ with Mind of Steel buckle Engineer : 160$/190$ without/with buckle Moon Collector : 270$ with Moon Dust buckle Barbarossa : 220$/250$ without/with buckle Synergy : 190$/220$ without/with buckle Ace of Spades : 200$/230$ without/with buckle Wu Xing - Fire : 270$/300$ without/with buckle Freedom : 240$/270$ without/with buckle Bravery : 285$/315$ without/with buckle Buckles: Golem Footprint : 60$ Moon Dust : 60$ Be the King : 60$ Lord of Steel : 60$ Turtle Shell : 60$ Individualist : 60$ Harpoon : 60$ Camel : 60$ Eagle's Claw : 60$ Boss : 60$ Feel free to ask me any questions, I will respond as soon as possible.|> Out of respect to the time.
